Vintage car

Good evening to you all. First I would like to thank you for all the comments left on my birthday cards and the girls thank you for all the birthday wishes you all left them.
I would like to say hello to my new followers Dolly and Butterfly. Thankyou for joining me and hope you both enjoy your visits.
A bit distressed today(or should I say stressed now the holidays have started!!). I bought these stamps from Doncaster and they are from the Pilkington Lane sets. They are really lovely to stamp with. I stamped and embossed with Walnut Stain distress embossing powder. The background pieces have been inked using distress inks(Antique Linen, Tea Dye and Walnut Stain.). I also used a Tim Holtz mask on the background piece. The ticket and sentiment are from Stampers Anonymous and stamped onto a scrap piece from the background. There is a little ribbon  buckle using a Memory Box Die.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:
Allsorts challenge week 164 - distressing
Sketch saturday challenge#217-sketch(WINNER)
Crafty Catz weekly challenge#142-Monochromatic
Make it Monday#99 with Digi my World-Linky Party challenge
I hope you have enjoyed your visit and hope you like the card for today. Time in the craft room may be a bit limited for the next six weeks but I will need to escape there every now and again at some points-so keep looking out for me!!!
Bye for now
x Catherine
