Motorcycle Card

I was so out of my comfort zone with this card.  It was super challenging for me to work with limited colors. The moodboard inspired me to have a masculine theme. I think the motorcycle idea worked well in the end and I was pleasantly surprised with the results. The laser cut gears really brought the stamped background to life.


A Closer Look:



Supplies:
Kraft cardstock
black ink pad
silver & white gel pens
silver acrylic paint / paint brush
clear varnish medium (Glossy Accents)
small chipboard gears (Creative Embellishments)

Great card! I love that you stuck to your limited palette even though it was tough. That's what I like about a colour challenge. I really like the stamped gears accentuated by the die cut ones too. Thanks for playing along with Color My Heart Color Dare. x

A super masculine card is the shades of grey, your post say's the gears are lazer cuts, maybe the bike is stamped, as a stamping challenge the focal element must be stamped to be eligible for the prizes, but still lovely to have you join in at Stamping Sensations.
