I love making a whole batch of backgrounds in a session or two, so I can have them on hand for future cards. Unfortunately, once I file them away, they often get forgotten. This weekend I pulled some of these out and turned them into cards. I used Distress Oxide inks for the card base and for the die cut, shaped element. The tag is a die by Sizzix and the fun stamp of a bird on a bicycle (Bird on Bike) is by Lost Coast Designs. The sentiment is by Inkadinkado, the clouds are by Penny Black and the sun image is by Firefly. I even used a little bit of crinkle ribbon that I've been hoarding.
Pixie's Snippets challenge 431`. I used snippets and scraps for the tag, stamped image of the bird and bike, and the stamped clouds. The coral colored label is also a snippet, as I only had enough to cut a partial label to tuck behind the tag.
Great background - love the bird on the wheel! Thanks for sharing with us at Double Trouble :)
