Great challenge! My fav cards are the ones I can get inky or downright grungy! I had a blast making this distressed collage card!
On this card: Distressed pieces, images w/Tim Holtz distress tool, ripping edges, crinkling and inking bends. Distressed edges of pieces and card with sponges/Tim's distress handle using several Ranger distress inks. Used pieces from a Making Memories kit, scraps of embossed and plain card stocks, K&Co scrap. Staples to adhere most items. Otherwise Tombo multi-purpose glue and Scor-tape on the lace. Canvas flower, tag w/string, safety pin and bubble clip w/stamp from kit. Lace. Tim Holtz and Stampabilities (?) stamps.
THANKS for looking!

Wow, what a great card for the challenge. My favourite bit is the triangle with the bellhop, reminds me of old travel posters I used to have in my bedroom. I like the flower, too, and the border that looks a bit like lace.

This is a great card, Gaby, a lot of work has gone into it! Great colours for a grungy, distressed looking card and love how you have placed "The Journey"!

Holy Cow! This is absolutely awesome. This is the kind of card I just LOVE. I mean that. I love vintage, collage and a mix of lots of things. You have so many of my favorite things, lace, skyline, twine. I LOVE it.
