Enjoy Life on the Waterfront! Part One...

Well I bet you were expecting something else with that title!! And I'd love anyone to comment with what they were expecting... as I may have already done that one too!!!

Love this card!! Which was a special request for a 60th birthday... though I forgot the 60th birthday part!! But that was quickly rectified during class!
Perfect card to design just after the Tour de Yorkshire has passed through the county again!

Though I am sure that my regulars will recognise the card fold... 

Link to the Bridge U Fold Card tutorial here... though just one Box Section insert this time... cut 11.5cm x 1cm high and scored at 1.5cm from either end... (aka 4 1/2" x 3/8"...scored at 9/16" from either end!?)
Enjoy Life cyclist stamped using Memento Black... with a light sponging of Balmy Blue... and then fussy cut...
Front Base section stamped using the Enjoy Life grasses... and then quickly handcut... ending up about 1cm (3/8") high...

Balmy Blue sky brayered... grassy fields sponged... remembering (afterwards!) to use my Silicon Craft Sheet to spread the ink from... as the sponging so much softer when you do it that way! Birds from High Tide...

Mountains (Old Olive, Gray Granite) & Shaded Spruce trees etc using Waterfront... wonder if this set will stay around as long as Lovely as a Tree....? Hope so...
And here is Andrea's 60th card... note that her grass cutting is much neater than mine!!
Though I am afraid that the Little Numbers dies we used are long retired!

      Thank you Andreja! Love to have made you excited....
      And i have to smile as this was a card designed for an Andrea to give to an Andrew! Though he ended up with another one in the end! Come back and see his on Monday!
