Colorwash bicycles

The name of this a*muse studio stamp set is "enjoy the ride", which is one of the dozen sentiments that comes with these two bicycles.  However, after I made this colorwash background piece, I was really resistant to covering any of it.  however, my need to gop up a perfectly good card prevailed, and I used this cuttlebug diecut word - it barely covers anything, yet is large enough to make a statement.  I avoided buttons, ribbons, and flowers - too girly.  This will make a great guy card.

I want to tell you a little secret.  When I first glued the colorwash piece down, the glue picked up the colorwash ink and made a smeary mess all over the white border.  To fix it, I peeled off the colorwash piece, flipped over the base, and more carefully glued it on that side.  To cover up the other side (really ugly with smeared blue glue), I cut an extra large piece of blue cardstock (5 3/4 by 4 1/2) and glued it to the back.  That's right- the blue border is on the back, not the front.  The card looks clean, and I didn't waste my base.
