Have a Drink on me

Good morning to all my crafty friends and followers - I hope this day is as bright and shiny for you wherever you are as it is for me here in Hornby. I'm able to make this post, however, because I have to take my kiddies to the dentist this morning so I don't have to rush for school - but I do have to go to the dentist -aaaarrrrgggghhhhh!!!!

So here's one I've made for my husband's brother Lee who is a keen cyclist. He lives in Germany too but will appreciate the northern flat cap and real ale!

I started this card with a white 8x8 card blank and used a blending tool and distress inks (barn door - that's new, tea dye and pressed olive) to create the background. I chose the colours to match those on the La Pasche image that I decoupaged up. This is the neglected piece of stash - found it at the bottom of a draw and thought it would be perfect! The paper is basic grey from their life's a party collection and the sentiment is kanban. Buttons are from my stash.

I'd like to enter this card for the following challenges:
