Grunge santa!

Hello Lovelies! Bit earlier for me today! Just put little one down for her nap so thought I'd share my make with you! 
I made this card a couple of nights ago, it was just an experiment really just wanted to play with some products! 
All the stamps I used are from Visible Image, they are great quality stamps and some brilliant designs, http://www.visibleimage.co.uk/
I used rusty hinge distress stain and the new yummy metallic DS I used the tarnished brass in this card, it's a 6x6 card the background is just stained and stamped in a random fashion various background stamps, then I splattered the stain here and there, I ran it through GC using clock mask to add bit of texture! The topper I used again the Rusty hinge DS dripped some water and patted dry, The Christmas eve stamp I used the DS to with then heat set, the rest was stamped with brown Adirondack ink, the corner was created by using a large polka dot mask and Gesso, left to dry over night then dabbed with the brass DS and wiped off to just lightly stain it, then lastly I added Cosmic shimmer mica flakes to the beard and hair! I think this makes a great card for a man? Thank you for visiting xxx Im entering this card into http://craftcreatoins.blogspot.co.uk/2012/09/bling-it-up-challenge_17.html
