Bicycle Race

Hey kids!  How is your day going?  I have a CAS card to share today with a cute bicycle.

Somehow I managed to combine three challenges into one CAS card ;)  First up is the color challenge from CAS Colours & Sketches:

And the sketch from Just Add Ink:

Finally, I chose a bicycle for the main image for the Retro Rubber challenge:

It amuses me that the inspo pic is a tractor for a mode of transportation.  The area where we live is rural enough that we occasionally get stuck behind slow-moving tractors when we're driving around.  We have a lot of bike riders too.  My bike stamps (that main image is actually four different stamps:  bike, flag, basket, and bird) are from 2016 and this is only the second time I've used the set, so it was nice to dust it off for these challenges.

Hope you're having a great day, and enjoy the ride! :)

On a Bicycle Built for Two

Morning, y'all!  How are you on this fine St. Patrick's Day morning?  Got your green on?  I do.  I even picked out a green tank top to wear to the gym for my kickboxing class :D

Today's card is wearing green too.

All stamps except the red hearts on the bottom are from the Sale-a-Bration latecomer addition Pedal Pusher.  I think the images are cute (the bike, birds, basket, and hearts in the basket are all separate stamps) but I don't think my card is really selling it.  Well, not every card can be your favorite, right?

I started out with the color challenge from The Color Throwdown which I just love and adore:

I used Wisteria Wonder, Real Red, and Cucumber Crush.  I wish the Wisteria Wonder wasn't so gray though, I miss our old purples still and I'm hoping to get one in the next batch of In Colors.

I also used the interesting sketch this week from Freshly Made Sketches:

I was tempted to do a bouquet of flowers for the circular element, but I was inspired by the CTD challenge graphic to get out the bike design.  Hubs and I rode a bicycle built for two when we were in China, but my seat was way too far down so I looked pretty goofy in the pictures.  But still a fun memory!

See you back here tomorrow for the Friday Flashback.  Cheers, peeps!
