This is for the swap "Make Mine Vintage". I've been re-visiting some of the techniques I learned in Bernie Berlin's ATC Workshop book, and this one shows how to use a scrap of phone directory or catalog page as a background. I chose a scrap of reproduction catalog as both BG and inspiration here. The BG was colorized with chalk ink and the color scheme was drawn from the scrap of BG paper behind the man on his bike. I added a 2% moo to this ATC and the front wheel of the bike was purposely positioned so that it came off the bottom just a bit-added motion without adding moving parts! Tiny watch pieces as embellishment because they reminded me of the gears in a bike wheel.
