Western Birthday

Good morning crafty friends!

This first card has lots of goodies on it starting with this cute Western Dancing Couple.

I can't think of anything that I like wearing more than cowgirl boots so this sentiment

stamp is perfect to me, Better In Cowboy Boots, I made into a pennant for the top.

I used pink and Kraft for my cardstock, burlap "ribbon" with lace as an element and also suede fringe.

To finish it off I added the silver stars and rhinestones with a little glitter on the cowgirl's hat and boots (of course, LOL!).

I used a Rubbernecker square stitched die set and Distress Burlap Ink for the main image panel.

For my next card, I made it an easel card...I love easel cards, you may have guessed that if you visit my post very often.

For the top I used the Cow Cutie and the fabulous Wagon Wheel along with the sentiment 

Herd Birthday Greeting.  The cow was masked after stamping then the wheel was stamped.

I did the out of the box cut with a Rubbernecker stitched circle die so that it would not cut the cow's

legs off.  I then glued it to the white strip and stamped the sentiment then added dots of Star Dust Stickles.  I added a strip of Kraft color cardstock under the white, glued it to the pink and set aside.

For the inside I made up the same white and Kraft strip, added the Stickles dots and set aside to dry.

I stamped the partial sentiment Saddle Up Birthday, die cut with Rubbernecker rectangle stitched die then popped it up...normally this would have been the easel stop but I wanted to add the 

Cowgirl Line Dancer because she is just too cute, so I made a line of silver studs above her on the pink panel to keep the easel top open.

For the card base, I cut the normal 8 1/2 X 5 1/2 panel, scored and folded in half to make 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 then scored and folded the right half in half.  I die cut the bottom 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 left side with a border die from Amazing Paper Grace.  For the top (front) of the card base I cut another 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 panel, cut the top edge with the same border die then glued it to the 2 3/4 X 4 1/4 right side.  The right side should be folded inward toward center score line.  This will finish the card base so that all you have to do now is glue the top Front) wheel panel to the top and the bottom (inside) cowgirl panel to the inside.

Thanks for visiting today!
