Twofer Challenge #16 and Inkspirational #186

It's time for another fun Twofer Challenge and this time we need to use this prompt.
Unfortunately I only have one stamp with wheels and it took a while for me to think of two ways to use it for two different occasions but I finally got a spark of inspiration and this is the result.
The card on the left is a graduation or new job card that uses parts of the SSS bicycle on deckled edge die cuts in shades of gray.  The sentiment from Stamplorations was stamped on DSP and the panels mounted on it with the vertical one on foam.  The card is not quite this dark IRL.
The second card could be for a birthday or hello friend.
The bicycle is stamped on DSP and colored with DOX which gives good coverage over the printed paper.  The sentiment is from the same set as the bike.

I'm also sending this card to Inkspirational where their prompt is "Adventure".

These cards are a bit of a departure from my usual style but it was fun to think out of the flower box. 😉  Thanks for dropping by to take a look.  May you have good friends and great adventures.

I like the two different way's you've used the bicycle Bobby! The gears are a brilliant idea for a background!

You certainly mastered the art of twofering, Bobby! Your grey deckled panels have a modern style, especially on that great "tread" looking background! Wonderful idea to stamp directly on the patterned paper, and those cogs really go great with the bicycle! So glad you joined in the fun with us at the Twofer Card Challenge!

Oh, my, you did great outside your flower box and coming up with ideas for the challenge! Pretty brilliant to do the fragmented bicycles on the shades of gray panels, which makes a great masculine card. Both could be masculine, actually, but the other could be used for a girlfriend, as well. The background of cogs and gears is perfect. Thanks for playing with us at Twofer!

Such a cool collage of bikes, Bobby ... graphic, stylish and deliciously masculine! What a great choice for your background on your second card ... the interlocking gears are perfect with the adventuring bicycle ... wonder where it's off to?! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Twofer! Hugs, Anita :)

A wheelie great interpretation of the prompt for Twofer, Bobby! Your dimensional card in shades of charcoal and gray is filled with the promise of dreams coming true and your birthday/hello card is an awesome one to send to a friend! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #16! Hugs, Darnell
