Good Monday Morning! I had a fun weekend with my little grandchildren. My husband and I took them to the Children's Museum, a pumpkin patch, the park (twice), and to see some lions. Yep, they kept us busy, busy. But, it was fun, fun.
I loved this image the first time I saw it and still do. It is from Prickley Pear and called Country Bicycle. I had to have it. I decided to color it in Fall colors using Copics. The sentiment is from Creative Imaginations and is from the Thankful set.
The corrugated paper is from DCWV's Mat Stack called Corrugate.
I made the button with a Marianne Creatables Tags & Buttons die. The raffia color is rust.
My card was entered into the Sept. Fan Club Gallery: If You Leave Me Now--Travel/Transport and also fits the inspiration, leaves or a Fall scene, any theme.
I'll enter the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes

Wow such a beautiful card - love the image and coloring and the corrugate is a very nice touch tfs!!!
Sounds like you both had the most wonderful time with the children, isn't it great to be able to be young enough to do these things. I just love being with my grandies but they all live so far away and are growing up quickly.
A most beautiful card and love the colours and gorgeous stamp.xxx

Really nice card...Just perfect for fall. I really like how you did that cute button...I feel a case coming on...
Glad you had a great weekend, sounds like you had a lot of fun! We did too with our company in from Missouri...been years since we had the pleasure of spending time with them.
This is indeed a fun image, and with the different color combos - perfect for any season. Love the way you've done it here. Glad you had such a great time with the kiddos. Rest up this week! :-) TFS & Hugs

This is such a pretty image and I love the Fall colors! I especially love that button! Glad you got to spend some time with the grands. Such special times.
I can certainly understand why you had to have that stamp! It's gorgeous and colored so pretty too! I love the corrugated background and wooden accent too! We do have much to be thankful for don't we?!
Gorgeous coloring and design Brenda, sounds like a lovely time with the grandkids.

Glad to hear that you spent a fun weekend with the children Brenda - their childhood passes too fast and it is wonderful to have fun times with them.
I don't know where to start on this gorgeous card -
The composition, the amazing paper, the beautiful image! But I'd have to say that the wonderful colouring just brings it to life. I signed up for the Copic colouring class in the hope of being able to do what you've done here, but I haven't had chance to play yet.

Wow !! its a gorgeous card Benzi ..absolutely love the way you have colored the image ..so so perfect !
Hi Benzi! LOVE this image and you've coloured it to perfection!! Aweseome! Great texture from the corrugated panel and flower embellishment. Great design!! Loll xx
I didn't know you could buy corrugated paper like this (I don't get out much); thought you had to swipe a coffee cozy from Starbucks or something like that!
It makes a perfect backdrop for this comforting scene. I can see why you needed to have it!
I love your coloring on this image, Benzi! Fall colors that are bright and beautiful. Love the texture in the background and the button. Such a wonderful image -- I understand why you love it.
Love the corrugated paper with that image. Great coloring and a wonderful card for fall!

How fun - Benzi, this is so full of motion even tho the kick stand is down. I think it is the beautiful coloring and shading - in fact, I'ved pinned your card for marker ideas because I am smitten by the shading and light coloring around the blue flowers! Love the way they pick up the color in the bike, making all your pretty fall colors burst! Beautiful card! hugs, de
