This is for the Featured Stamper Challenge for Joyce Ann/ AnniePanda and for the Alphabet Challenge - Letter Y: thinking of YOU, a Yellow color, Youthful memory.
What fun and inspiration I found in Joyce Ann's gallery! Recently, I had found a cute bicycle stamp in a forgotten stamp set in my stash. I wondered if I'd ever use it. When I saw this lovely card in Joyce Ann's gallery, a lightbulb went on!
I'm working on using up old papers and thought the colors in these papers were a good fit for the image. I used the same look of Joyce Ann's card with the diagonal edges. I angled the bicycle to look like it is going uphill which might cause the daisies to spill out of the basket. Put a sentiment at top instead of embellishments and did some paper piercing on left side to mirror the small dots in my striped paper.
I had a bicycle like this one as a young girl and I would ride uphill to visit my Dad at work. It even had a basket on the front. I loved it. A sweet Youthful memory. Fun card to make. Thank You for looking.

This is very cute! I love the colors you used along with the different dsp... and the bike with the daisies spilling from the basket is adorable. Thanks so much for sharing! xoxo

Love this! Super colors together, love the texture you added with the piercing on the one edge. Totally clever to have the bike going up the hill.
Thanks for taking you time to honor me with a case! You are always so sweet!

I love bicycle stamps. This one is a good one. Great idea to make the bicycle pedalling up hill. Your sentiment stamp is perfect. I have that one too and need to get it inked up!
