This is one retired stamp set I just can't part with! It is one of my very favorites!
The metallic background was achieved by wrapping aluminum foil around CS, placing it inside a Cuttlebug embossing folder, and running it through the Cuttlebug.
The Happy Birthday sentiment was stamped with Silver Encore ink, then embossed with Silver EP.
The Aqua Painter was used to add a Basic Gray shadow on the "road".
The Paper Piercing Tool, Mat & Template were used to punch the holes for the rows of brads.

This card is absoutely fantastic!!! The foil gives this such a masculine feel. The brads (don't even want to think about how long that took) look wonderful. I wish I had gotten this set, but I don't know anyone who rides a motorcycle. I do regret it, especially now looking at this lovely card.
