I was recently asked by a friend what would be a good stamp for a card for an older boy/man. I suggested the Motorcycle stamp in the Stampin' Up Autumn Winter/Mini Catalogue. After singing it's praises and thinking of all the wonderful things you could do with this stamp it suddenly dawned on me - I NEED IT! Funnily enough it was the last day of the catalogue so I managed to order one. Phew! I am so glad I did. It sat on my shelf until last weekend when I found I needed to make a "masculine" card for a motorbike loving 10 yr old. I had seen lots of cards like this one so had to give it a go. I am really happy with how it turned out. The (silver) metallic cardstock was embossed with the square lattice embossing folder to recreate metal plate.
