pedal pusher revisited...

It's a new month, and a sweet one at that!  The Papertrey Ink Sr. Design Team members are revisiting the Pedal Pusher stamp set as we kick off February.

This stamp set is one that allows for cards from the most simple, one-layer look, to very complex and dimensional, with moving parts if you choose.  My first card is quite simple, with the stamping doing all of the work.  I used a couple of sets in addition to Pedal Pusher, including the Choose Joy and Life is Beautiful sets.  I stamped in Lovely Lady, Mint Julep, Vintage Jadeite, Summer Sunrise, Orange Zest, Limeade Ice, Hawaiian Shores, and Hibiscus Burst.

I added just a bit of dimension by using enamel dots at the centers of both wheels, a bow, and an office clip near the top.

My second card is a bit more dimensional, as I used the die cut wheels to add a bit of character to my bicycle.  They are stamped in Soft Stone, with the bicycle and accents stamped in Mint Julep.

I added in the Big Hugs stamp set and dies for my sentiment, stamping in Mint Julep and Pure Poppy.

My basket is full of stamped flowers from the Stacked Statements stamp set, and the tiny hearts trailing behind and leading the bicycle are from the Big Hugs set once again.

Hey Melis, these are really cute. I love all the little details, the more you look the more you see. Love the 3D wheels and banner, enamel dots and the cans dragging behind. I love the gifts in the basket and the butterflies too, cute idea. Pretty pattern paper, can't leave that out. I would be like a kid in a candy store in your craftroom, lol. Thanks for sharing and always inspiring.
