this is my card for today's fs260 challenge. Shirley (aka wannabcre8tive) is this week's honoree. she has a fabulous gallery that I loved looking through.
Shirley used a cricut to cut her cute cowboy. I don't own one but I did have a cute cowgirl stamp from Marks Finest Papers. It's the cowgirls rule set.
my changes: I stamped my image with versamark and embossed with white ep. Cut it out with spellbinders labels 4.
I used a different color scheme and added a layer. Placed my ribbon on a diagonal and then used bakers twine over that.
to complete my card I stamped a cowboy hat from the same set. cut it out and used foam mount for a little dimension. punched a mini tag and stamped my sentiment on that.

This is awesome Mary! I saw this at the MFP website as we live on a 20-acre ranch and my girls would love this set because we have horses, but I never would have thought to use it how you did. You really added the coolest girl spin on it with your DP, hat, twine embellishments but the image embossed in white takes the cake.
