My second card for the monthly theme, summer job. I actually learned something while making this card. I wanted to make sure the name of the summer job was correct, so I googled Paper Route. It came up that the correct term is Paper Round for children who have a route that they deliver newspapers to by bicycle. Who knew???
I kept this one CAS. My base card, layer and bike are all watercolor paper. For my panel, I lined up the A2 die-namics and placed the circle in it, then ran it through the die cut machine. I taped the decorative newspaper to the back and mounted it with foam tape to my card base. I added Wink of Stell to the bike and put it on the card using Stampin' Up's adhesive sheets. That sure is a game changer when using dies that have small pieces!
I ended up making two of these cards. The one above is made with a die that was given to me as a gift. I've had it for a long time and don't have the original packaging it came in. One of the guidelines we have to follow while being a guest designer is no off brand stamps or dies. So...I ran to the the internet to track down the recently retired Stampin' Up Fun on Wheels Bundle so I could make the card again with products that I knew for 100% were not knock offs.
I had to take a picture of how beautifully wrapped the stamp set came...so pretty!!!
Thank you for having a look at my blog!
