Hi, I used part of a board bg stamp to make my border all the way around. I used a stamp aligner to make them straight and post-its to mask off the top and bottom boards that I stamped first. I stamped the cowboy set in the middle then die cut it out and colored all, sponged the edges with Vintage Photo Distress, added foam tape to the frame and twine then attached and added the metal "concho" to the knot, placed my image inside the cutout oval and then decided it needed a sentiment. I die cut the words (Little B) with aqua like my matting and called it done!
Thanks for looking!

Love the look of this card. Terrific job on your masking, all of your lines are so crisp and perfect. The twine and concho are the perfect compliment. Also, the touch of adding the end of the rope to the front panel of the card is great.

I am away from the gallery for a few days and there is an explosion of fabulous Robin cards I love this one...the little touches of teal look fantastic. The frame is so cool. I pinned this to my "card ideas" board so I can borrow this idea in the future. Beautiful sponging on the center piece. Faved.
