Live to Ride - Ride to Live
Topic: Fantastic Folds

Assignment: Make a card for a teenager.

I had a brainstorm about using an oval tag as a skateboard by adding wheels. It actually worked much like I envisioned, though the tag was wider than I remembered it. I used rubons to make it look like it was covered with graffiti. The wheels are black circle punches, hole reinforcements and eyelets.

I accordion folded a 12 x 12 cardstock then cut on an angle to make a multi-level top. I decorated the front with bits of silver card impressed with diamond plate, black leaf stickers, and handwritten text "ride like the wind".

Along the top edges I arranged these cut out words:

On the inside I added more diamond plate and some industrial-looking scrapbook paper.

And here is the full view:

I have no idea if a 'real' teenager would like this card, but it worked for the swap I was in.
