For the Inspiration Challenge (IC906), we are visiting Belk & their Pinterest Board. I was inspired by THIS item. I made several motorcycles last week & had one left over, so I made another slimline card w/ it.

This card uses pretty much all the same supplies I used in THIS post, except the filmstrip die. While I was making all the motorcycles, I made an extra one. This time it was a little easier since I didn’t have to cut up all the motorcycles. I added a dry embossed copper background & backed it w/ a narrow black layer. 

The motorcycle was popped up w/ foam to give it a little dimension, 

Here is a handy trick that made putting the bike together a lot easier. I put a piece of sheet protector over the package w/ the bike picture & taped it to my glass mat. Then I assembled the pieces of the bike right on top of the picture.

Since the pkg picture is the exact size, I knew the pieces would all be in the correct places. The sheet protector kept the glue off of the pkg & I was able to wipe it up easily off the sheet protector.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Happy Easter! A big congrats to Heather, the newest Featured Stamper (FS844)! She has a wonderful gallery full of scrapbook pages & after much browsing, I chose THIS page to case for my card. I kept the filmstrip layout but instead of pictures, I made clips of a motorcycle to fill my frames.


So for my slimline card, I die cut the filmstrip then added a thick cardboard behind it to elevate it. I die cut all the parts of the motorcycle & put together 3 of them. I arranged them to look as if the camera was catching it as it rode by. I added the greeting in 2 parts to the last couple of frames. The copper layer was embossed w/ a diamond plate embossing folder.


The bikes were all cut to fit inside the popped up filmstrip. I didn’t want to take the chance on messing it all up when I stamped the greeting, so I put it on separate pieces of white & fit them inside the filmstrip.

It’s my turn to host the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge and we’re visiting Reproduction Gallery and their Pinterest Boards where I was inspired by these 2 pictures. This and This.

After stamping, masking and coloring in my dress up pumpkins and cat, I die cut the panel and added a purple layer behind it. For the striped bg, I used a new Rubbernecker Halloween paper pack and used a circular piercing plate on it. Then another, very narrow purple layer. A few gems were added for sparkle.

Here are the Copics I used:
