This weeks TSC was to create something with sparkle. I chose this CS scrap as the red on it is glittery. I added a bit of Stickles to the hat band too. Both the sentiment and image panels were die cut with Nesties. I colored the hat with copics. All came together fairly quickly and another plus is it was all pretty much from my scrap pile...........which continues to grow anyway!!! I played a little challenge on myself as I came up with this because I knew the CS I wanted to use (hence the sparkle) but I didn't want to make another "girly" card. So I just started browsing through my stamps and ran out of time and grabbed the hat stamp and.........well, you know the rest.

Howdy, Tater Tot!!
Good to see you on board, AND with such a great masculine card too!! Love how the added sparkles just make this look so cool (and yet so MANLY still) That background DP is awesome and has a western look, and those 'deputy' stars are the perfect touch !! Love that we BOTH made masculine cards and STILL got the sparkles on there!! way to go, cowgirl!! LYMI!

What a great glittery man card! You know, some men are very glittery - the rhinestone cowboy, Elvis in many of his outfits, and my DH when I have been playing with Dazzling Diamonds and some gets on him. LOL! This is one great card - love the dp and the hat band.
