A Lovely Day, Artistic Outpost Blog Hop

It's A Lovely Day for a Blog Hop!  This Artistic Outpost set does set you free.  I love to ride my bike....it's such a wonderful feeling to listen to the birds, breath in the rushing air, kick back and relax and get in some exercise at the same time.  I have the most beautiful pink metallic bike.....it's so people can see me and get outta' my way of course!

My little bike girl is colored with pencils, and her basket is full of Flower Soft petals.  The ribbon is hand dyed seam binding.  The green background paper is stamped vellum.

Please be sure to visit the rest of the Artistic Outpost Design Team for beautiful art and great inkspiration.

Hi Gerrie~

I just love this card. This little girl is a great image! You colored her beautifully, Gerrie! I just love that she is carrying a basket full of flowers! The background is fabulous. The bow is great. I have never worked with seam binding, but it looks lovely on this wonderful card. I love working on vellum...and the bicyclces look great on the vellum. My old eyes can't read the Sentiment...too bad! Beautiful card, GF!
