Dirt Bike
This card was requested by my Grandson
I found it rather tricky and a lot is hand cut. I started by finding a picture on the internet of a guy on a dirt bike. I then set about finding punches that would fit. I have all my punches (approx 190) in a book and can flick through to see what will fit. I used
CP1 circle (Inside of wheel)
CP1 hand
CP2 bell (boot, knee to boot, upper arm)
CP2 foot (lower arm)
CP2 balloon (head)
CP11G bell (upper leg)
CP11G circle (helmet)
CP21 cartoon bubble (body)
I used the cuttlebug die 2x2 stamps circle for the tyres, cutting out the centres with my fiskars template circles and using two of the edges on the back tyre.
The mudguards were cut with the fiskars template circles recutting to get shape.
The rest was hand cut and most of the punches were trimmed.
I find if I can get the picture from the internet the correct or near enough size of the card i want to make that helps a lot.
I used a silver ink pen for spokes on wheels.
White ink pen for helmet.
black fine liner for face and detail on boot.
Deckle sissors for the edge of tan cardboard.
Peal off gold number 9 coloured with blue sharpie pen.
This ended up being a 14cm x 14cm square card
