Hi! Today`s Inspiration Challenge brought to us by Stephanie this week was to go to an online site called The Bicycle Muse. Read about it here. Forums at Splitcoaststampers
I felt like this card I did for today`s Innovative Stamp Creations stamp release fit right in so decided to include it. Don`t you just love when that happens? This is what inspired me to include it. http://www.thebicyclemuse.com/shop/k...oral-p-40.html
Don`t they both just scream summer? And so many use bike trails and visit bodies of water in the summer. I colored this fabulous image found here with Copic Markers. http://www.innovativestampcreations....71/8012235.htm
I then matted it and distressed it and added hemp twine and 3 black rhinestones. I think this is a gender friendly card but would definitely work for the sometimes difficult mens cards we need. Hope you like it and have a fabulous weekend!

I love when you stop by!!

So realistic, it looks as though it could be hand drawn and colored or watercolored! Beautiful scenery card. I would love it and I am sure you are right, perfect for a male too!

What a beautiful summer scene. It reminds me of the front of my aunt's house on Lake Seneca back when I was a kid. I remember walking out on the long pier, holding very tightly to my dad's hand so I wouldn't fall into the water.
