I wanted to make a thank you card for a friend, so I inked up the cowgirl from my recently released Cowgirl Up! set from Whipper Snapper. Of course, I had to include Tiny Tim in the scene as well -- he's such a ladies man!
I stamped the images in black StazOn ink and painted them with a water brush and re-inkers. Instead of using a bouquet stamp for her flowers, I chose to use some paper and felt flowers instead! I created a little mini bouquet and used some seriously strong white craft glue to adhere them to the card. To country things up a bit, I spritzed the entire card with Coffee Shop colored Glimmer Mist from Tattered Angels. It added a bit of rustic charm, and ooh-la-la shimmer at the same time!
wow I just saw this card on SCS and being a cowgirl myself I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! I cant wait to get this stamp it is so darling

What a sweet and fun card. The little boquet of sunflowers is perfect and Tiny Tim looks dashing as ever.
Have enjoyed the new photo's of the babies recently born. I like the name (Midnight Runner). Oh did you ever get any pics of the kittens?

Your little cowgirl is very sweet. Nobody colors as well as you do. And, congrats on the new little guys. I just love seeing those pictures of them. Thanks.

My, you have been busy with all of your new babies, photographing them, watching over them, etc. Midnight Runner is a looker! Too bad he's a HE and not a SHE! Then there's this card. That bouquet is just over-the-top cute and perfect to match the flower in her hat! Love the plaid paper and the Glimmer Mist and your wonderful painting!
