LIM....ONE LAYER CARD....."NEED FOR SPEED"....


Morning all from a dull West Midlands....where's the sunshine gone?....my card today is for this weeks challenge over at LESS IS MORE,where the theme this week is one layer card and "The need for speed"....now i was going to go down the obvious route of cars,planes,trains etc....but decided on something alittle different.
I've used the fastest land animal in the world....the cheetah which can run up to speeds of 70mph and a take off speed of 0 to 60mph in 3 seconds....now his need for speed is not for the thrill but for survival...so thats what i call "The need for speed"....


Sorry the photo's not too brilliant....i've used 300gsm ivory linen cardstock,stamped the cheetah image which is a stamp i've had sometime from Tanda Stamps (no longer available) with Versafine "Vintage Sepia" and coloured lightly around the image with chalks...he needed some ground,so that he wasn't just floating in mid air..lol.
The sentiment is off a LOTV stamp sheet "Simply Sophisticated"and also stamped with the Vintage Sepia.

Well thats all from me today
Take care
