Hi! This card was made for today's Featured Stamper Challenge: sbs81- I cased This Card; it fits this week's Speedy's Friends Challenge to use a punch- I punched the stars; and, it fits this week's Stampin' B's Challenge to use dots.
I decided to use the cowboy card to CASE because I had this image. I stamped the image in Adirondack's Espresso and colored with Memento markers. Next, I sponged in Palette Nude and Adirondack's Ginger and Espresso. The background is Hazelnut Tan that was crumpled up and smoothed. Next, I rubbed the Ginger ink pad all over the wrinkles. Next, I stamped in the mustangs along the bottom, and used the crackled stamp for depth. (I changed the images, and curved the sentiment ...don't you love photopolymer stamps?..and I added a die cut.
To get the mustang charm BLACK, I colored it with a black Sharpie!
Finished size: 5 1/2" x 4 1/4"
Total time tot complete: 44 minutes...Markie decided to CLEAN HIS BEDROOM at 11PM!!! WHAT????

Don't ever question a child cleaning his bedroom...no matter what time they decide to do it. LOL All the crackling, crumpling, adding mustangs and charms really helped to make this one awesome card. Love it!
