For today's Ways to Use It Challenge - Toni wants us to use bikes on our cards!
This lovely 'Mummu's Bike' Mo Manning stamp is the only bike stamp I could find and I was happy to get it inky! I love Mo Manning's images!
But I don't like coloring such a detailed stamp! So I decided to do a watercolor wash background and then just stamp the image over it! I hope you can see the pale blue, pink and green of the background?!
The sentiment is from Penned Elegance II by PTI, as well as the Scalloped die framing.
I could use this card for several occasions - just to say hello to a friend, for a birthday or as a feel better card!
It's raining buckets here in MA today and is 57 degrees! after we got 6" of snow over the past weekend and it was 4 degrees - crazy winter!!

Soft springtime colors for your watercolor wash bg. I can almost smell the air... I like your little flower sequins, especially the one holding her hair together~

I love how you have used this image by only adding the soft watercolor on the background. I love this sweet image.

I love her images too. So nice just gently colored, and love the addition of the little flower, mf!

I love this fun image and have her and have yet to use her. She really looks like she is having the best time out on her bike. Super card with this image.
