FS04 Bill's Cowboy

Photo Details

Poster: bambi64

Atomicbutterfly's Scooter card inspired this card. I changed the colors and the stamp set. Used twine instead of ribbon (didn't think a man would want ribbon on his cowboy card) and distressed the cowboy/layers.

I couldn't get two images to look right up at the top like Kelly did so I went with just a single image. I "branded" the HB stamp into the silver embossing. (layers upon layers of embossing powder on white paper, the last layer, as soon as you are done embossing, stamp the image before embossing powder sets)

Used WWC and blender pen to color the cowboy. Thanks to my supplier for the image.
