Cycling Steve turns 50

A card request this month for a Steve who celebrates his 50th birthday. A Cricut character card was requested.

Using the Cricut 'Everyday Dolls' cartridge, I created the main figure using the outfits from the skateboard design. The helmet was created on my Cricut Gypsy device by using the side helmet from the cartridge and adding an extended strap to make it front facing.

The cycle was also taken of the cartridge but altered again on the Cricut Gypsy device by changing the angle of the bike. The bike was then cut out of cream, grey, black and silver mirror card, and sections cut and attached to add the detail.

The main background of the card was a green piece of card matted on to black card, the road section was created using grey card cut at an angle, a white strip was cut for the centre of the road section and two narrower stripes added of yellow.

A personalised message was printed and matted onto black card and fixed using 1mm 3d foam pads.
