This card is for yesterday's TPT challenge to make cards for Terry, fellow TPer Charlene's husband. He is in need of a transplant and is awaiting a kidney. Praying that his needs will be met.
Mothermark's challenge was wild and crazy and a lot of fun! I choose to combine three movies by bringing a "fistful of flowers," some "peaceful, law-abiding" cowboys, and some "pale" colors.
I actually stamped, then masked the cowboys, then stamped the field of flowers on top. I think the "bar" of grass makes it appear I did the opposite. Oh, well. I tried.
This card was also inspired by this card from last Saturday's IC367 challenge webstore, House 8810:
Stamps: Local King Rubber, Victorine
Paper: Paper Studios
Ink: Stazon, SU pads and markers, Ranger di
Accessories: paper for masking, Scotch two-sided removable tape, SU sponge (for inking background and distressing)

Gabby, every cowboy needs to get in touch with his softer side now and then, and who doesn't love riding a horse through a beautiful field of flowers? Awesome silhouette image. You really let your creativity show through with all those challenges.
Thank you, Gabby, for taking the time to make this for Terry; he will appreciate and love it!

I love what you did with those cowboys riding across the field of flowers! I think the bar of grass works perfectly. It's dreary today in my neck of the woods, but your bright, cheerful colors brought a ray of sunshine to my day!

Really cool Gabby! The silhouetted cowboys look awesome! I LOVE your "Fist full of flowers"!!! The way you layer your images/stamps is always a treat to see (and really inspiring too!!!)
