Howdy hens!


Yippee ki yay!! LOL! Ok, I know it's Monday but at least you can start your week off right by takin' a gander at this here card. At it purty?? OMG, I just LUUUUV this card. This is one of the images from my last Stamping Bella order and I've been dying to use it. I began by stamping "giddyupabella" onto Bella's Bestest Paper and colored her with my Copics. This DP by Flair Designs, are single 12x12 pages I picked ages ago at my LSS. It ties in perfectly with this image don'tcha think? I really liked the cowgirl image on the bottom of the DP, so I thought I'd add some twine to the lasso in her hand to show off the sentiment. Looks kinda cool huh? I haven't made an elongated card in some time now so this kinda worked out in my favor, giving me room for the sentiment, DP design and the image. I matted the image with some SU Early Expresso and punched the top and bottom with my Martha Stewart border punch. I adhered it to the DP and stitched around the edges. I finished with a few brass brads and that's it! I really had no idea in mind when I began this card but it all sorta fell into place as I was cutting the DP. I LOVE it when that happens!! Yee-haw! Have a MARVELOUS Monday! {{{hen hugs}}}

Supplies:
Rubber Stamps - Stamping Bella; CS - SU Early Expresso, Bella's Bestest Paper; DP - Flair Designs; Copics; Brads - Recollection; Border Punch - Martha Stewart
