The Born to Ride Card

This is the card I made for one of Andy's friends who has just turned 50, The brief was he likes bikes, so I went with this great digital image,


This is a fantastic image from Karens Doodles called "Born to Ride" ,  I do love him, he has been coloured in with spectrum noir pens and I have added glossy accents to any thing that looked like it should be chrome, I matt and layered him on to an old map and just added a bit of ribbon and some buttons to finish him off.

I would like to enter him into the following challenges,

Cards for Men - The Great Outdoors, 
Critter Sketch Challenge Blog - Stars (on the ribbon)
Karen's Doodles - Make if for a Male
Make My Monday - Wheels
Crafty Emmas  - No Girls Allowed

Thanks for Popping by Jo xx
