Getting Every So Slightly Grungy

Hello folks,

It's the big bloke's birthday next week so I've made a bit of a grungy card for him based on the latest Cardabilities sketch and with a little influence from Tammy Tutterow on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Blog:







This is about as grungy as it gets for me!  I was inspired by Tammy's use of Distress Inks which I used  to sponge the background. I also stamped on some of the background using the paint splatter stamp from PTI's Grunge Me set. I've been looking for a motorbike stamp for my motorbike mad bloke for ages and found this rubber one a couple of days ago at my local craft store - it's by Deep Red Cling Stamps. I'd have liked to have put a sentiment on it but all of mine are way too feminine for the stamp...I feel some more shopping coming on....

I'm entering this for the Simons Says Stamp Monday Challenge and also the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge where the challenge is to use a clear or rubber stamp.

Thanks for stopping by,

Claire x
