F4A167 john wayne

Photo Details

Poster: tessaduck

For this week's free-for-all challenge: texture. I'd discovered that passing a piece of cs through two or three times, with different ef's, will really beat it up well, making it look a bit like worn leather. This one went through with the square lattice ef, and then again with a scrap of burlap and the sb embossing mat.

Love the quote by John Wayne: "Courage is being scared to death and saddling up anyway."

Love the faux leather look and that is a neat quote for the sentiment!

I must remember that next time I'm trying to thoroughly distress some cardstock for faux suede!
Love the soft background you created for the great cowboy image - the crackle is spot on.

Great sentiment, Brenda and I like how your EF gave the card a more "rustic" feel. Terrific guy card.
