This is another card I stamped using the Enjoy Life stamp set again. It is cased from Linda Van Wely-Zwille because I just loved the colors she used. I think the new Blueberry Bushel is a new favorite of mine. It is a new In-Color that will be around for a couple years at least. I also Bermuda Bay. I used the Sponge Brayers to get this effect and sprinkled water on it and blotted it dry with a paper towel. Once dry, I added the grass with Memento Black and also the bike silhouette stamp using the Stamparatus. Here are my instructions:
