Hello, on this last Sunday of October! I't's the day for a new challenge at The Paper Players! This week's challenge #615 is a grid allowing you to choose your options. I made a girlie birthday card using the Bicycle Builders Honey-Cuts from Honey Bee Stamps and designer papers. Isn't it cute?
Here's the challenge prompt from our lovely Anne Marie. I chose the middle row, top to bottom: Die-Cut, Texture, Birthday.
I knew I wanted to use this brand new-to-me die, and the stamps that coordinate have lovely sentiments to include a birthday. I know I'm really going to love using this!
Texture. Maybe I went overboard but I added a 3D embossed white panel (Tim Holtz), cut the bike frame out of metallic card stock, and used a bit of sparkly tulle ribbon to wrap around the bike handles.
The basket had textured details which I highlighted with shading, and I dabbed a shimmer pen on the flowers. I really got in some good time experimenting with what I wanted and what did or didn't work with this one.
Can't wait to see what you will create! I'll see you tomorrow!
Be yourself
Have delight in your craft
Make something beautiful!
I'm playing along at NBUS. Looking for inspiration? As I write this there are 135 entries for this month!

Cindy, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE every detail on this beautiful card. That bike bike and all that texture speaks to me! I would cherish this card if it arrived in my mailbox! Have a great week!
This is such a pretty card, Cindy! I love the background texture and the metallic look on the bike frame. The curved sentiment around the wheel is a fabulous idea too!
