What a great trip Stacy is carrying us on this week. We are headed to The Smithsonian Institution. You'll find plenty of inspiration there. I found a lot of old 2- seater bicycles to inspire me. This is the Columbia Tandem Bicycle, 1896. https://ids.si.edu/ids/deliveryServi...442G&max_w=450
To create my card, I stamped the bicycle and colored, then masked it off and sponged on some sand. I made a few grains of sand darker with my dot stamp. Last, I punched out a cloud die and used for a template just sponging around the edges for my sky.
I hope you can see the sparkle in the water made with my Spectrum Noir glitter brush (Sparkle).
I put a frame around it and added a sentiment.

I love this card. It makes me feel good. Luvin' the tandem bike and your scenery and framing looks perfect. I LOVE that you sparkled up the water. I can see it. A really "feel good" card.
