I have done it again and made two cards for this weeks Challenge - this adorable image is Ride 'em Ryan and irresistible - he is perfect for a boy card!! I have coloured him with chalks and made a few additions to make him a bit more rustic - you know how it is with boys!
He is cut out by hand and then popped up on foam tape onto that gorgeous DP from Stampin' Up - some of which has been embossed with the Perfect Paisley' embossing Folder - perfect for a Western sytle card!! I have cut out some fabulous leather look DP with the SU Windows Lot Punch and used the ends to fit the sketch, adding some blue brads - I love the touch of blue! I have added Corner Dies that came in a RAK - these are fabulous and work so well with this sketch

Wow - this is really special. We both did cowboys! Yours is cute, but mine is a total hunk. I really like how you did the tabs and that image is unbelievably cool!

I love what you've done with this sketch, linda. Instead of adding that right to left panel, you cut out your angled panels instead. Great vision. I love this darling little ride'em Ryan image. Very vintage and very fun.
