I knew immediately which card I was going to CASE of Diane's, when I saw her Southwest Manger card. I just got a few stamps from Stamp A Mania, because they were the best ones I found, in a search for southwest and cactus. We *winter* at our condo in Nevada and I LOVE the scenery. I wanted to make a birthday card for my DH's cousin, who lives in Arizona and says he's a true desert rat. I stamped the main cactus, then masked it and added the desert landscape. Colored with sponge daubers and framed it with dk chocolate. Here's Diane's card that inspired me. She has a wonderful gallery to choose from! Southwest manger by fionna51 at Splitcoaststampers

What a wonderful desert scene for a desert rat. :-) I'm sure it will be appreciated. So, you run from winter weather, huh? I don't blame you one bit. Nice to have a place to go.

Sue, you captured the desert perfectly with your design and color choice. Your DH's cousin is surely going to appreciate how you created this card just for him.
