All my brother wanted for his birthday was some money for a road bike, so this was the card I made for him. It was inspired by a picture that I recently saw on Pinterest. It was very quick to make. I started with a 4 1/4" x 11" piece of fine linen cardstock, scored at 5 1/2". I stamped the background with fine linen ink and the Papertrey Ink Background Basics: Farm & Barn stamp set.
This adorable bike, by Cali Arroyo, was cut at 4.2" with my Silhouette. Isn't the fine detail amazing? I just trimmed off the front half of the bike.
The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink's Big Birthday Wishes stamp set.

Awesome!! To be honest, I have been afraid to use my cameo. I don't know how to download and use files etc. I need to do that online thing you gave me the link for so I won't be so chicken...lol. This is great..I'm sure he will love it :)
katie, this is soo cool! you're making me rethink the silhouette...
Don't you just LOVE that Cameo machine! This bike is cut perfectly! And I love the simplicity of the card. It really brings out the sentiment and that bike!
I love this idea...you could continue the front of the bike on the inside too...or keep it and use it for his next year card!
