When I saw this bicycle I squawked! What a fantastic image! It comes with a basket on the front that you can fill with presents, hearts, flowers, a cake etc, all of which are provided. I wanted the bike without the basket for this card though so I quickly coloured the parts of the rubber I did want with an Early Espresso marker and stamped it onto a Crumb Cake card base.
These balloons come with the set too and I think they look celebratory tied to the front of the bike! The balloons and the bike were coloured with a Poppy Parade marker - this colour is so perfect for colouring on kraft card stock. Using a ruler, I marked off the 'ground' with a Crumb Cake marker and doodled a bit of detail under the line.
Finally I stamped the sentiment onto Whisper White card stock, cut it off with my trimmer and made ribbon tails on each side with a square punch.

great card Vicky - I love your 3 minute series (although I doubt I'd make any of them in 3 minutes I'm just too slow a crafter!) The balloons remind me of a European film we watched at school.
