Hi all! I am feeling under the weather this weekend so decided to stay tucked in bed to rest up and recover. But I can't let you down so have a masculine fun fold card idea to share:
The open road awaits, and that's the feeling we wanted to capture with the Legendary Ride set. It includes two different bikes, some accent pieces, and a handful of greetings that will help you create amazing cards. Build scenes of a garage or a road for the bike enthusiast in your life. The sentiments include phrases for birthdays, Father's Day, and more.
The set of dies includes pieces that cut out individual parts of the motorcycle as well as the full bike. It's easy and fun to layer the pieces. No need to go to the garage to work on your bike—just go to your craft space and let your creativity go full throttle! (hehe)
Here's my fun fold card idea, along with instructions on how to make it.

Measurements:
- Basic Gray card stock: 5.5” x 8.5”, scored at 2-⅛” and 4-¼” along the long side.
- Basic Gray 2” x 4” for Motorcycle base
- Basic Black: 5-½” x 4-¼” plus 4” x 4”
- Smoky Slate: 5-¼” x 1” plus 5-¼” x 2-½” and small scrap
- Silver Foil sheets: Gunmetal- 5-¼” x 3”, Bright Chrome - 2” x 4”…both with adhesive sheets on the back side.
Instructions:
- Stamp “You Are Legendary” on the right end of 1” Smoky Slate strip in black.
- Emboss the gunmetal silver foil sheet with Metal Plate embossing folder using the Cut & Emboss Machine. Adhere embossed background to the top of the large black background and the stamped Smoky Slate strip to the bottom, leaving a gap between the two and around the edges.
- Stamp smaller motorcycle image in Versamark on one end of smaller black card stock, then heat emboss with silver embossing powder and heat tool.
- Die cut: Small motorcycle, 2 tires, and large motor piece from the smaller black card stock.
- Die cut: Large motorcycle background from 2”x4” piece of Basic Gray
- Die cut: Details for large motorcycle and two hub caps from Chrome Foil sheet.
- Die cut: Motorcycle seat from small Smoky Slate scrap.
- Assemble large motorcycle as follows: Use liquid glue to adhere the black “motor” to the center of the Basic Gray bike, then the Smoky Slate seat over the black at the back. Peel off the adhesive backing of the hubcaps and adhere to the center of the wheels, then use liquid glue to adhere the tires over the hubcaps. Finally, peel off the backing of the bike details and press over all other layers.
- Fold the Basic Gray card stock along all fold lines. Adhere the bottom half of the black background to the folded outside edge (half) of the card front. Do NOT adhere the top half of the black layers to the front of the card.
- Attach the large motorcycle to the front background using black dimensionals.
- On the inside of the card, stamp the “Authentic You” sentiment in the lower left corner in black. Attach the small embossed motorcycle to the right front corner with black dimensionals. Adhere the 5-¼” x 2-½” Smoky Slate card stock toward the top inside of the card.
Front of card will fold down and “stand” like an easel by leaning against the top of the small motorcycle on the inside of the card.
Aww, how kind Joanne. I am certainly on the mend!
