My daughter just bought herself her white Harley after paying the last of her student loans. I did the bike yesterday but was not happy with it. When I saw the color block challenge today I thought I'd go with it. Not sure if this qualifies since there is really no color. The bike is Elizabeth Craft sticker attached to white cardstock with Sookwang tape. Glitter Ritz was burnished on to it and colored with copics. The background is various pieces of Shimmer Sheetz which were embossed and inked up with copic refills and alcohol, then sanded. Elizabeth Craft borders were used to make it a bit girly. I was happily surprised that I could emboss Happy Birthday over the glitter. Rivets were added to keep with the motorcycle theme. Thanks for a fun challenge!

Wow - fabulous! That is such a perfect background to go with the Harley. It certainly counts as blocking for me. All the texture and shimmer must be even more wonderful in real life, too.
