I don't have too many guy cards in my stash and thought I needed a few more. So I used today's Pals Paper Arts challenge - a sketch - to make a guy card.
I chose some guy colors that I thought looked pretty good together - Always Artichoke, Not Quite Navy and Marina Mist with Very Vanilla. I LOVE how the Not Quite Navy and Marina Mist look together!!!!
I took the idea from other cards I've seen in the gallery to color the bike. I wanted to add layers to it, but actually the bike looked better and more dramatic without. It is popped up though.
I used a wheel to make the background texture.

Great guy card - I find I never know when to stop with a card and I tend to overthink the 'guy' cards. The textured wheel bg is perfect for this image...
