I liked the Buckaroo Blue and the Cranberry Crisp so well (and I had an extra square already stamped with the paisley), so I decided to do another card with it.
I've had this cork FOREVER and never used it. So I figured I would find a way. I like the way the Distress Ink looks on the edges of the cork- very worn, almost slightly burned kind of look. It really stamps nicely, too.
This cowboy stamp saw ink for the first time today, also. I like the image so much, but always felt stumped for how to use it.
I wanted a "Thinking of You" card that was also masculine (seems I have needed several lately & never have one that seems right). I was tempted to use a "What's Brewing" stamp, but decided to just do "Thinking of You" for today.
The button was a stretch for me, but such a perfect match to the paper.

What a great card! I love the way you used the cork. It lets the image be the focus, while giving it a very unique feel.
