Enjoy the ride

I needed to make a very quick card tonight just to send a note to somebody so combined that with making a one layer card for Less Is More, this week Chrissie and Mandi are asking for a one layer card with a frame, I've just sponged a circle with distress inks, stamped the little fellow on his bike and the sentiment in the corner, I stamped the sentiment with distress ink so its not as crisp as it could be but hey ho I quite like this card and that doesn't happen very often !

  1. Distress ink is a funny substance to stamp with sometimes isn't it!
    I find that sentiments can sometimes be very splodgy on certain cardstock... your sentiment effect matches with the blue circle frame rather well.
    It's a really charming card.
    Thanks so much

  12. Like it I love it, it looks clean and fresh, yet has that TH vintage feel, I think it's the stamped words which are terriic with the Distessed inks. Caz
