This card started as a sample for
this class but when I failed to cut the decorative paper accurately I was forced to abandon it and start over. It has been sitting on my desk and I decided that I would reinvent a sketch for it. So I added a ribbon across the front of the layered decorative paper and then created a large focal element that features an old time bicycle along with a fun greeting!! I watercoloured a bit of a shadow for the bicycle then I layered it onto brown. Next, I cut a blue rectangle that would accommodate both the image and the greeting (
Desert Diva) which I colour washed a bit to coordinate with the image. I added a short piece of a die cut zigzag border in between which I found on my desk. I used 3D foam tape to adhere this large element to my card front.
