2 Challenges in 1 :-)

I borrowed this Rubber Stampede Vintage penny farthing stamp from Nina at Binky Crafts, I thought it was perfect to enter this weeks One Stop Craft Challenge whose theme this week is 'Vintage' :-)
I made the background using Tim Holtz alcohol inks on glossy card, adding some gold mixative in with it too. I then used black stazon to stamp the image abd cut it out using a nestie. The papers were a gift from Nina too :-)
I sprayed the grungeboard die cut shapes with slate and plum glimmer mists, they look gorgeous in real life :-)
The sentiment is from a SU circular set which I layered onto a circle which had been stamped with the large wheel and added a large brad in the center.

I followed the fab sketch on the Mojo Monday Challenge they are having a special week this week, promoting awareness and fundraising for the Alzheimers charity. Did you know that people who do crafts are much less likely to develop this dreadful disease, it's true !! So when your hubby/family complain about how much time you spend cardmaking, just explain that you're just trying to keep your marbles :-)

Thanks for looking, I appreciate your comments so please leave me one :-)
