Bike Week - My kinda ride - Friday

It's' Friday and the final day of Bike Week.  Thank you so much for riding along with me this week as I showcased some awesome stamp sets from The Ton.  Thanks to Effie over at The Ton for offering up some great stamp sets for the giveaway.  The Motorcycle Layering Stamp set and the Motorcycle Boss set are so unique and fun.  I had a blast working with them this week.  But today I'm pulling out a little stamp set that really won my heart.  This little two wheeler is more my speed.  This is what my bike in the garage really looks like!

That's right!   My little blue bicycle created using The Ton's 3x4" stamp set:

Beautiful Day Bicycle

Surprise!
 Add this to the giveaway list!  Three winners will now be chosen from this week's comments so one of you could win this adorable little "bike" set just in time for spring!


For my first card. I made a pretty little scene that I could color with my Zig Kuretake watercolor markers.

• First I stamped an A2 size top fold card base with The Ton's Delicate Polka Dots Cling Background with Hollywood star ink. 
• On an A2 size white card front I stamped the tree branches and birds from The Ton's Autumn Wishes stamp set with Caviar ink, then colored with Zig Kuretake markers.
•  I stamped the sentiment from the Beautiful Day Bicycle set by masking off the word "beautiful" and stamping the other words in Caviar ink.  Then I masked off the top and bottom words and stamped the "beautiful" in The Ton's Hollywood Star ink.
• I diecut this piece with the second to largest die in The Ton's Double Stitched Rectangles (Large) die set.
• I masked off a strip on the bottom of this diecut piece and ink blended The Ton's Smoky Quartz ink for the sidewalk.  Then I adhered it to the Polka Dot card base.

The Bike:

• I stamped the bike and flowers with The Ton's Caviar ink.  I stamped the bike color with Cali Blue.  You can see, this lined up and stamped great!
  
• I colored the rest of the bike and flowers with Zig Kuretake markers, then diecut them using the Beautiful Day Bicycle Coordinating Dies.
• I diecut a couple of blank bicycle pieces to glue onto the back of the colored piece then adhered it to the front of the card.  
• I glued on the flowers and some clear sequins from The Ton's Glass Slippers Sequins mix.

My second card is a birthday card using whole a mix of stamps and dies from The Ton.

• Beautiful Day Bicycle
• City Girls Park Life (balloons and puppy)
• City Girls Snow Day (presents)
• Beer (Happy Birthday Sentiment)
• Summer Blooms (wishing sentiment)
• Modern Labels Dies

• First I masked a strip off the bottom of an A2 size white card front.  Then I did some ink blending with The Ton's Smoky Quartz ink.
• I stamped all of the images and sentiment with The Ton's Copic friendly Caviar ink then colored the images with Copic markers.  I masked off the little baskets before stamping the puppy and flowers.
• After stamping the sentiment I diecut it out using the The Ton's Modern Labels die set.  I added some craft foam to the back.
• I adhered the panel to a card base, then glued on the sentiment label.
