The banner on her sketch got me thinking about a wooden plank and a cowboy hat to hang on it. So, I pulled out Yee-Haw and started stamping!
Now I tell ya, what little cowboy wouldn't love this card for his birthday??? I know my little guy would. I may have to do a cowboy party for Ben just so I can use this card...lol!
I went with colors that I don't normally use, but they worked great with this design. I wanted the sentiment to really stand out so I paired Marina Mist with Night of Navy and Hello Honey. I really love the way the Night of Navy looks on the Marina Mist banner, it's so bold and gorgeous! To make the unusual pattern, I pulled a stamp from a set that you wouldn't necessarily think of for this style of card. I used Build a Bouquet! The large stamp was the perfect pattern to make the rustic look I was going for.
Baked Brown Sugar with the woodgrain embossing folder provides the very realistic wood card base. I think the sponging really made it look the part! A rope and a cowboy hat frame the sentiment for the birthday buckaroo. Too much fun!! But what about the inside??
A big YEE-HAW of course! I usually go with a white interior, but carrying over the colors was just too perfect for this one.
So now it's up to you! How about joining us and make a card! You have two weeks to create and link up. Just go to Technostamper for all the details plus more great samples from the Design Team.

I just LOVE this, Nicole! One of my favorite sets....I could not WAIT to get this one when I saw it at convention last year!
So fun, I really think this is the cuties set--I keep forgetting about these extra sets and I love most of them. You did a fabulous job with this sketch--really really fun card. So sorry it has taken me so long to make it around to leave comments.
