Inkspirations Challenge #85 - Susan's Motorcyle

It's Inkspirations Challenge time again.  This week's challenge sketch is a really easy one (I'm sure a few people were scared by last week's colours, lol!):-

The best thing about our wonderful craft of stamping is meeting & making friends with lots of lovely people.  One of these friends, Susan, very kindly lent me her motorcycle stamp recently, so I could make a card for a bit of a bike enthusiast.  Thank you Susan.  *Waving :)*

Here's how it turned out:-

The bike was stamped in Versamark & then embossed with black embossing powder.  It has been coloured with markers & silver metallic gel pen & then been clear embossed over the duco.  I wanted a soft background, so used chalks for the grass & sky.

The black stripes have been given a "knobbly tyre" feel, by rolling the strips through a crimper, then putting them back through the crimper again a second & third time at a 45 degree angle.

Please join us in the Challenge this week & see what fantastic projects the rest of the Team have to inspire you with:-
