Good morning, dear crafty friends!
Today I'm sharing a fun masculine card created with Power Poppy's awesome Move the Soul stamp set. I actually managed to make a (mostly) one layer card for this one.
The road die I used is from MFT Stamps, as is the sun ray stencil I used for the background. Isn't that a cool stencil? I air-brushed it with Copic markers (R24/YR68/Y17) & my air-brush system. I stamped the sentiment in black, and added a few black rhinestones to dress it up just enough.
The motorcycle image was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on X-Press It Blending Card, and colored with the following Copic Markers.
This card was created for our third son, who has an awesome red motorcycle that he really enjoys riding. He also just happens to be turning 21 on Tuesday. I know I say this with everyone of my children's birthdays; but, seriously, how did that happen so fast?!!
Here's a look at the image up close.
See that spiky helmet? No, the image doesn't come that way; but my son DOES have a helmet like that. So, I just had to add the spikes. He definitely has never been one to shy away from being exactly who he is. I SO admire that quality in him! He's such a kind, cool, & all-around great guy. :)
Here's a peek at the inside of the card:
Inside I added another road die strip, stamped the image in orange, and stamped the sentiment & lightning bolts in black.

WOW! Cindy, this is a fabulous card, and I love how you've used this motorcycle dude really POP off your card! What a fabulous background with the sun ray stencil, and I love the road too! I knew those spikes weren't in the real image, but I LOVE them! Your son must be a wonderful man, and he's going to love this card! Love the inside too (as always). Hugs and thanks for the inspiration, my friend! xoxo

Oh I LOVE!! The motorcycle just POPS off the card with the colors that you chose behind it!! I also like that you chose to design the inside of the card. I need to start doing this too as it brings it up to the next level. Delightful design!
