First, I really need to thank Roxie for another incredible sketch! I have no idea how you keep coming up w/these fabulous sketches, but whatever it is, please dont loose it!
This is my first distressed card and my first for using reinkers!
Thanks Peggy for the paper!

WOW! This is just gorgeous, Anne! I love your stitching ( I am card stitching challenged!) I love the vintage, eclectic feel you have given this beauty! Fabulous job!
Anne- this is amazing!! Love your stitching and main image. Not sure how you got it to look like that. Great natural colors and hardware as well! Love that little clock too!
