Hello!
After driving through rain, sleet and snow, we’ve been granted a sunny day today here in the Loops! I love playing around in my studio when the sun is shining so that’s where I spent some time today. I have a friend who is turning 60 soon. I took an old method and applied it to this card. I love making masculine cards.
To make this I grabbed some electricians tape, mixed media tools, regular necessities like double sided tape and some fun things like rub-ons, brads and Stickers. Then I remembered he loves to ride and is an avid musician - - and out popped a card! Like magic!
Above is a photo of the taped piece so you can see what I did with it. It’s hard to get it to show up because it’s so shiny and reflective. I had some...oh man, I forget what they call it, but it gives you the waffle pattern underneath the tape. It has a sticky side so I just stuck it in place and put the tape over top of it. Then I grabbed my little tools and ran them over the seams, and since this was a motorbike card, I had random “tire prints” all over. I used the poky tool to make dots that look like rivets.
I used a retired stamp set from Stampin Up called Born to Ride that I got at a garage sale.
A couple more photos.

Thanks for stopping in. Hope you enjoyed it!
Have a great weekend!

What a great masculine card Carmen - love your background, and so different from the embossing folders that we tend to reach for now - I love it

Oh, I just made up that background, it’s not a folder. I used silver duct tape and impressed it with different tools I have.
