Sharing a birthday card I made using Art Impressions Workout Gal Wheelie  for the main image and sentiment. My colleague loves to workout and I thought this would be a fun card to make for her. There is a tab on the inside of the card which makes the wheels turn as she pedals.

To make my card, I began with a card base of Hammermill – Premium Colour 100 lb. cardstock, cut and scored to be 5.5″ x 4.25″. Using my Cuttlebug and Gina Marie Designs – Nested Scalloped Stitched Rectangles, I die cut Scrapbook.com – Rainbow Smooth cardstock. Then, using my Cuttlebug again and this time Momenta – Cardstock, I die cut the inside rectangle with My Creative Time – Rectangle Frame Layers.

Using my MISTI and Memento – Tuxedo Black ink, I stamped the image onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card cardstock. The image was coloured in with Copic markers and then die cut with the dies that came with the stamp set.  The backgrounds and base card were also die cut to match where the wheel would be turning. Using double-sided tape, the 2 large die cuts were attached to the base card centering the holes for each of them. The brads were inserted into the holes of the die cuts for the body and wheel assembly. This was glued onto the background rectangle. I positioned the sentiments around the image using a MISTI and Versa Fine – Onyx Black ink. They were embossed using my Marvy Uchida – Embossing Heat Tool and Ranger – Clear Super Fine Detail embossing powder.  Lastly, a 1/4″ foam circle was attached to the wheel from inside the card and the cover circle and tab were added to it. This mechanism allows the card holder to turn the wheel. So much fun!
