This week's colors and masculine theme are a bit out of my comfort zone but I really ended up being happy with my efforts on this one. We are in the middle of a move with lots of things packed but my shoebox of retired (and retirING) refills is still available so I pulled out three of the four colors that would work for
my background, mixed them with a little white craft and blended them onto the cardstock with sponge daubers. The white ink makes them go onto the cardstock like buttah and then they blend so beautifully. I cut a frame with my trimmer since the vellum map seemed like it needed a border. The motorcycle is all die cuts and helps me get in the Cherry Cobbler - on the seat.
Thank you so much for taking a peek. I hope you can play along with us!

Great card! Love your smooth sponged background ... thank you for sharing your technique with the ink refills and the white pigment ink!

What a neat little trick you taught everyone, Chris. I need to remember this one. Beautifully blended bg and the silver motorcycle with its red seat is pretty sweet too~
