WT972 - Wild West - 10/26/2023

[Cook22]

It's Sabrina here as your hostess this week, and to mark the anniversary of the fight at the OK Corral we are heading to the Wild West.
Think cowboys, saguaro cactus, tumbleweed, wild horses, and I have a few tutorials to bring to your attention.

Faux Stamped Leather Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers

Bandanna technique, as featured in TLC220 (TLC220 Bandanna Technique {5/11/09} by Lynn in St. Louis at Splitcoaststampers)
and TLC606 (TLC606 - Everything Old is New Again: Bandanna Technique {10/03/2016} by Cook22 at Splitcoaststampers)

and while I don't have a tutorial, I can offer you these two Saloon Door cards from Anita and myself as inspiration:
F4A457 Saloon by snietje at Splitcoaststampers
MMTPT436 Fred's Full Moon Saloon by Cook22 at Splitcoaststampers

I would also accept things in the Southwestern genre - pottery, pueblo houses, I'm thinking I have a Navaho stencil etc...

Once you've created your western-inspired card. upload it with the keyword WT972 and then come back and share a link here - that makes it easy for people to find your card in case of keyword typos or gallery glitches

Here's a link to our WT972 Wild West gallery

Here's a link to my sample: WT972 Birthday Boot by Cook22 at Splitcoaststampers


If you're not sure how to add a link, here's how:
1. Open 2 windows or tabs: one for your card in the gallery, and one for this thread
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Go to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.

Thanks, as always, to the team for the inspiring samples they have created.

Sabrina, I went with your Southwestern genre since I have an old stamp that fit this description. Thanks for the challenge.
