I love that I finally got a chance to use this great set from HFC for your challenge. I had much of this sitting on my desk waiting to get put on a card.
I used to ride bicycles all over town when our kids were small and we lived in a small town. After they were grown and we moved to a larger city, we got rid of all the bikes. But me and the kids had a lot of fun.
I got my first bike when I was four and as kids over 60 years ago, we rode our bikes everywhere; to the swimming pool, to school, to the park, to each others houses, just everywhere!
Now they have to build special 'bike paths', so many more cars.
ok, a little free nostalgia.
Here is my card. I don't know if I had ever used this die, or why I even have it.
But glad I did.
What a great story Sharon. OH the memories. Times seemed so much simpler back then. Thanks for sharing.

Whew! I had a difficult time finding a bicycle stamp in my collection and I didn't have any bicycle dies. I finally succeeded. My card (including the decorated inside) took 33 minutes to make.
My bicycle card for this challenge. Thanks, Tracie, for the inspiration! Now, if I would just get inspired to actually GO for a bike ride...
