Jean...Jean...Jean.... Don't think I didn't notice the tauntin' you been throwin' out in this gallery Missy! Yeah, I saw 'em. Saw 'em all! First, I seen this card, then this card. Does she stop? Nooooo! Looky at: this here. Took me a spell to get over the vapors lookin' at all them purdy cowboys. Whew! See? Evidence, right here in this place. She done asked fer trouble I tell ya! Don't even say you didn't see this a-comin', you Temptress!
Jean, all that silliness, just to say your gallery is inspiring to say the least (and, why don't I ever do that?) I loved looking at every page of your gallery! Enjoy your week, you Temptress Cowgirl! Hugs....
Last night I was PM'ing that sweet lil 'ol Mississippi McGyver, and we were spying on ways to take Rolled Roses to the next level. One of my friends at work soaked her scalloped circles and scrunched them up, and once dry she rolled them and I love the effect she achieved, and so did MariLynn! (who uses tissue paper to make them! Genius!) Had to try it, and love the old-fashioned look it gave.
Now, McGyver, a new technique! With no Jolee's in hand, and a desperate laziness to not want to shop, I Googled a printable cowboy boot image, so I could case this card, and oh-my-goodness, do I love Jean's card! After printing, sponging, stitching and crinkling to make the boot look worn, I popped it up on two layers of foam squares. Yes....Redneck Jolee's!
Thanks for looking! Be back in a spell to comment!

LOL - there is no such thing as an unhealthy infatuation with da Man....you done him proud, I like that boot almost as much as I like my buckaroos!!! You rock sistuh!!!! Have visited Jeans gallery before, never met a cowboy card I didn't like and hers are exquisite, they make me almost want a silhouette.

Frame-worthy, frame-worthy, frame-worthy!!! I LOVE how you captured ALL the western flair in Jean's gallery (and trust YOU to pick up on it!!!) I don't know one end of a cow or horse from the other (having grown up in Alaska) but I can tell a good-lookin' cowboy when I see one! And your boot - I love it. Not to mention the gorgeous yellow roses!

I'm out of zee loop Mr. Buckle on Da Man. I've got tons of him already stamped off on terrific papers and I look over, drool and hope one day to make another WWW card. Looks like you are having fun. The flowes are lovely; but, being the one on the lustful side, I do believe that that there cowboy certainly wears big boots. Hmmm.... I'm just sayin' - one can only wonder! PERFECT card as always. Been a long and hard summer. I hope to get back to SCS more. I'm looking for a PT job come Sept., so don't know how much time I'll have, but will keep up with the WWW!

First thing I thought of was "the yellow rose of Texas" Pat, this is beautiful, and a perfect case of 3 cards in one. Don't know how you do it, but you always pull out all the stops and come up with gorgeous. Love those roses, but I am afraid I need a video :( Gorgeous card!

This could be a cover for a Tim McGraw album.. A little bit country and a whole lot of attitude.Love it. The neat roses put a soft side to it. You can do any kind of card, even sassy and sexy. I'm a little old, but not dead. Into my favs. tfs
