On yer bike !!!

I've got a JFF card to share today, handsome Edwin on his bicycle.  I followed a recipe, which required ribbon, but I almost forgot to add it because I always struggle to add ribbon to a masculine card and not make it look girlie with a bow.  So I folded it over and stuck it underneath the image panel in a loop.  Not bad, huh?

I didn't add many embellies, just 4 little pearls, 3 in a row at the top, and one on the sentiment tag.




By the way, please wish me luck for tonight peeps, and keep your fingers and toes crossed that it doesn't rain cos I'm doing a 15 mile night time sponsored walk in aid of our local hospice.  If it doesn't kill me off, I'll probably sporting some mighty blisters to prove I did it by this time tomorrow!!!  I think all I'll be good for tomorrow is sat at my craft desk with my comfy slippers on.  Shame!!!  LOL
