Howdy!

Howdy, my fellow crafters!

Just wanted to share a card I made for my friends son.  She is always telling me how he prays for me specifically at breakfast, lunch, and dinner!!  What a sweet 4 year old!!  I know he loves horses and what goes with a horse...a cowboy of course!

To make this card:
Create a critter: Barn, horse and "Howdy"
PDDU: Cowboy

I used my gypsy to weld the card base for the barn, hide feature for the boy and horse.  The card is a top open card.  I distresses the barn with Tim Holtz distress hammer to give it  a weathered look, chalked the whites of the barn to add to the look.  On the inside, I smooch spritzed with SU gold glow.  Peachy Keen Critter faces Set A and  Everyday character faces assortment for cowboy and horse.  For the base of the horse I used the divine swirls cuttle folder.  I accented the cowboy with gold and white jelly pen.  I added some strips of brown paper cut on the side to add a 3D fringe to side of the chaps for my cowbow and used my paper piercer from SU to roll it up.  I LOVE how it turned out!  Throwing out how much I love my tombow adhesive!! ;)

I am also entering this in the Die Cuttin Divas Weekly Card Challenge #24 Shape card.  Check out the details HERE

Enjoy your day...and happy crafting!

This is way too cute. I love the western theme, especially since my daughter loves to ride horses. Thank you for joining Die Cuttin' Divas this week.
