The rootinest,tootinest card in the wild,wild west

Hee,hee.Sorry couldn’t resist taking some of the words from ‘Woody’s Roundup’ and messing with them a little.Love all the Toy Story films.I’m such a baby ;D

For my card I’ve used the image Cowboy from the Body Tot Series available from Digi Doodle Shop.Their a fab range of images and you can even buy the Hillbilly Band images in a full set. I’ve coloured him using Promarkers and inked around the edges with Distress Inks to give an aged effect.I roughed up and inked all the edges on the other layers too to keep the theme going.I found the perfect papers to accompany him in my stash.Unfortunately it was the last sheet and they’re no longer made 😦 The crackle effect one in the background has been embossed for  a different look.I’ve not tried this on patterned paper before and I like it !I also got the opportunity to use my newly acquired Rectangles 2 Nellie’s Multi Frame Dies !! Yay!

    I LOVE YOUR CARD! It is always so difficult to do a “manly” card but you have definitely done it well! Bravo! I love the die that you have used also and must check it out as this is the first I have seen it used. Thanks for playing at AiFactory this week!
