For Teapot Tuesday this week, we're looking for summer fun. How about we all pull out our bikes and go for a ride?
Image is black-embossed, and I used an out-of-the box technique with the nesties so the rider sticks out from the matting. Added eyelets in place of the centers of the wheels. I went to my go-to "summery" dp (there's something about the multicolored stripes that makes me think of beach towels).

You are right, the dp does make you think of summer beach towels. Love the old fashioned bike and biking is a great way to spend a summer day. Thank you for joining the tea party today. TFS

Love this image. I bet IRL it is really hard to actually ride one of those. Your bg arrangement is so cool. Wonderful card today. TFS :0)

I would love to try my hand at one of these Penny Farthing bikes, how much padding can I wear!?
What a wonderful summertime card and activity! I love the eyelets for the axles! Great layout!

Neat use of the out-of-the-box, it really adds movement. Care to have a race with Hedgie? Or just a leisurely ride through the countryside! Love the eyelet centres for the wheels, Sandy.
