So what are you waiting for, visit the ISB-Challenge blog to get inspired by my fellow DT members great creations, see what prize is up for grabs this time (as always sponsored by our generous Ilona from Bastelbedarf Regnery ) and get detailed information about the challenge (e.g. required stamps to use in order to qualify for the prize drawing) etc. For my card I used this weeks sketch from Friday Sketchers .

But today I was finally able to get a couple of quiet hours in my craft room ... YAY! how nice was that! So I checked the challenges going on right now and I decided to enter Friday Sketchers Challenge #60 , they have a great sketch and I loved working with it! For my card I used one of the Elisabeth Bell images from the WOJ Summer Kit. Colored it with distress inks and also distressed the image background with distress inks as well as my papers. For distressing the background & papers I found a wonderful tutorial by Kim . You have to check that out, it's awesome! You did a great job on that Kim, thanks a lot for sharing!!!
