Vicky Gould, hostess for this week's Stampin B challenge, asked that we make a square, western theme card. I found out that I really like making square cards but I didn't have a western theme stamp so I found a digi from this site: http://www.stamp-n-doodle.com/ I printed it, watercolored, added some twine and a brad. I think it makes a really nice masculine card.
My card is also for the Treehouse Stamps blog challenge located here: http://treehousestamps.blogspot.com/...-064-fall.html It is to use Fall Colors-orange, olive, and summer sun. THT064

Benz, wow, I love your western themed card and your square card. I make both now. You can fit more on a square card. I love your colors and use of masculine twine and brad. You nailed this masculine card and the challenges too!! TFS!!

Benzi - WOW! This is awesome! You certainly ROCKED this challenge. I love your watercolored image and square cards are still out of my comfort zone, although I'm getting better - I consider square from time to time, but end up w/ A2!! Excellent!

I just love everything about your card. What a fabulous job you did with the digi image. I really must try watercolor paper in my printer. Your layers and embellishment just finish your card off. Super masculine card.
