Good morning!
Hope you are all well and holding on to the sunshine! It's certainly not as warm today in the wind and it looks as though the blossom has now disappeared. Such a shame it only lasts a couple of weeks - one wet and windy spell and it's over. Here I go waffling on about flowers again, lol!
My card is an entry into this week's
Dottie's World Sunday Challenge where Juliet has set the brief. She would like us to use charms on our creations. Hmmmmmm, I really love the look of charms and lots of peeps use them so effectively on their projects, but I hardly ever use them!! So this was a good challenge for me as it made me do something different.
I love this gorgeous cowgirl from the Holly & Maddison World Tour downloads - she just looks so cool. As I was putting the elements together for the card I remembered a Sizzlit die I have lurking in my vast collection and decided it would be perfect for this scene. I also tried very hard to pick my papers from something other than the Basic Grey ranges and came up with the background from a Kay & Co collection, although you might notice that a bit of Basic Grey did sneak in from the Wisteria range...... ooops, guess I'm just a BG addict at heart, lol!
Materials:
Image - Holly & Maddison World Tour
Sentiment - Mini Stamp Blocks
Papers - Kay & Co, Basic Grey
Colouring - Polychromos
Die - Sizzlit Cowboy Boot
Flowers - Flora Doodles, Prima
Large Brad - Papermania
Embellishments - String, Spacers and Charm from stash
Accents - Faux Stitching
Right, enough waffling from me as I'm at work and should be shuffling paper!! Catch you later ;o)

Oooh fab card hun! Love the image and colours used. I like how you have done the rope, very clever!
The large piccys are so much better, I had already found another way of doing it when Debbie posted her tutorial, typical LOL, both ways are good though.

Fab card sweetie....fabulous card...love all your details, especially those charms hanging from the lassoo. Love how you've used those papers - I get them out and put them away again - you might just have inspired me to get them out and actually use them.
Love your new blog look, I'm jaded with mine now but am frightened of loosing some of the watermarks etc if I try and change it.
hugs Heather xx
