Back ground is done using one of the stamps that came in this unmounted sheet. I just randomly stamped it in dark chocolate Palette ink and distressed with vintage photo distress ink. I crumbled it up and then spritzed it with water to mute the ink further. Love how it came out.The tricycle is stamped on ivory and also distressed with antique linen and a stipple brush. Tied a bow with some hemp twine after running it around the background piece a couple of times.
So, head on over to Victorine Originals to snap up some great unmounted stamps at 50% off, sale ends Sunday so hurry on over.

What a neat card!
Wow - what a great card, Laurie! You do such a nice job on the vintage type cards! Thanks for the heads up on the sale, and for sharing your beautiful card!
Great card! Love the antique look it has.
I LOVE this image - I am just about "converted" on the victorian images and I love this one and how you worked it up. Great card.
Cool bike!
Very charming card Laurie. Love its simplicity and the awesome dp and twine are perfect for the image.
Delightful! That image is great. I wonder how they used to even ride those things.
Hi Laurie,
Beautiful vintage tricycle! Thank you for the info. about Victorine Originals. Have a great week!
Cool! But (said the cyclist) that's a Penny-Farthing, not a trike.
