I knew when I read the challenge that I would be going outside of my comfort zone because I do not have an stamps of motorcycles or race cars.
I have a very old Silhouette machine, which I love, and when I was teaching I used it every week to make things for my classroom -- bulletin boards, learning centers, name tags, games. Since I retired I usually use it to cut designs out of heat transfer vinyl to make shirts. It is always a challenge to scale Silhouette designs down small enough to fit on an A2 card, and then to weed and glue down all the little pieces. But the end result is always worth it.

Pat, your card is amazing. John is going to love your card as much as I do. Thank you for thinking of him. I love my silhouette also. I love the silver motor and exhaust pipe and gas tank.

Well, I said "Wow" when I saw your bike too -- those metal parts look like metal. Super bike and any motorcycle enthusiast is sure to love it. So, John is sure to love it. Great card.

That shaped card is just brilliant, Pat. Worth the time it took to assemble the bike. Seeing DH working on his often, I'm sure that it was still quicker to do on paper, LOL. Loving the metallic half-pearl sort of things.
