You Make Me Happy !

Hello Friends,
I'm here again with another Copic Colored Image Card..but this time it's a Masculine Card !
I always find it difficult to make some for My "MALE" friends & Relatives.
But when I saw this Die I exactly knew I had to use this for a Masculine card !
So here's what I came up with !

I colored the Marianne's Creatables Bicycle die cut  & the Ground using my Copic Sketch Markers..and added some interest using the Washi Tapes !!
I have doodled some dots & Shadow lines on the die using a White Gel Pen !
Used my Simon Says " EXPRESSIONS FOR YOU" Stamp for the sentiment !

Sentiment Stamp is from WPlus9 - "Written on Ribbon" set.
The Orange Background was distressed using Wild Honey  & Spiced Marmalade Distress Inks & Splattered with water for that effect !
