Will He Make It? – Tutorial #305 and Blog Candy!

Baby it’s cold outside. . . . .  So I am still hold up in my nice warm cozy house.  Although, I do have to venture out today to pick up some groceries and to check my P.O. Box in town, brrrrrrr.  Before I bundle up, I want to share this card that I put together this morning.  It features one of the Extreme stamps from Stampin’ Up!, Extreme Dirt Bike to be exact.  🙂 

At the bottom of this post you will find a few pictures of the view from my kitchen window very early this morning.  Too darn cold to step out to take pictures, lol.

Before we get started on the tutorial though, how about a bit of sugar free blog candy!  Yeah!!!!

Stamped the Biker using Basic Black ink.

Added some dots behind the back tire with a Basic Black marker.

Stamped the Sanded Background stamp over the entire panel using Pumpkin Pie ink.

Cropped the left side of the panel and then cut the right side of the panel in to slices.

Punched the label punch out of Pumpkin Pie (2) and Basic Black (1) card stock.  Punched a star out of Tempting Turquoise (2) card stock.

Cut the left ends off of the Pumpkin pie pieces and the both ends off of the black label.

Grunged them up a bit with a sponge and Basic Black ink.

Assembled the card front and added silver brads, a few more dots behind the front tire with a Basic Black marker and then Grunged the whole card front using Basic Black ink and a sponged around all the edges.

Here is the finished card measuring 5″ x 6.5″.

This is the end of the tutorial.  Enjoy!

Now this is what it looked like early this morning from my kitchen window.  I love that we have views of farms but don’t have to work one.  🙂  Yep, the barn you see in the first photo is the one you see at the top of my blog that I painted in the Fall.

Stay Warm and drink some hot chocolate with marsh-mellows!

Until my next post. . . . . . . . . . .

Huge Hugs,
