Woo Hoo Rev Up The Fun with Retro Sketches

VROOM!VROOM! Hello stamping friends. I am riding in to bring you a card challenge for the Retro Sketches today. I stamped this while still in Ohio with my friend Julia who has this set that I don't yet, so when I saw this sketch challenge I knew I wanted to use this set to make a male birthday card. I can never have enough of those in my card stash. We had a great day last Saturday as we went to walk around the gardens of the estate of Stan Hywet who was the Good Year Rubber owner's property from years ago. OMG!, it was so beautiful as Julia and I walked for two hours or more around this property and the gardens, ponds, and statues were incredible. Look at this place. It was more like a castle. 

This was just so pretty. Can you imagine living in this place?

Okay on my challenge card I used the Crumb Cake card stock for my base and then cut my Very Vanilla piece of Card Stock the width of the tread mark and the length of my card stock. I stamped the motorcycle image with Cajun Craze ink and then used the retired Versamark Marker to color over the image and embossed it with clear embossing  powder. It turned out so shiny like a new motorcycle. COOL! My other ink colors for the verse from the set are Garden Green and then I stamped the tread over it with Crumb Cake. I just used the tread and using my Stamp-a-ma-jig stamped the tread in the three colors (can't live without that Stamp-a-ma-jig) and then stamped the dirt in Crumb cake. I figured it needed something else so I added a Neutrals Button  and tied some Linen Thread through it. Then added some Candy Dots to fit the challenge layout for the Retro Sketches.
