Happy Birthday Western Style!
Howdy pardners! I have a little card that would be perfect for those little men in your lives! It is a brand new set by Crafty Secrets called, Down on the Farm. I colored this cute image in with my Copic Markers. I used various Spellbinders dies to create the card and matte the image. All paper is by Papertrey Ink. And the boot? Wellllll, let me tell you......I created it using my Imagine Machine (by Provo Craft) and Shrinky Dink material. I used the Country Carnival cartridge and printed it at 3". I punched a hole in the back, and then used my heat gun to shrink it down to size! When it was shrunk down, I added a bit of twine to the back of the boot! I just think it is such a fun accent for this card!
I love being able to combine my favorite companies together!!!
And now, on a personal note......I have just a couple of photos to share! If you are sick of seeing my lil' family.......run! FAST! LOL! 
I managed to get a pretty decent photo of the four of us. It doesn't happen often, as I am usually the one behind the camera. We all wore T-shirts to support our local Special Ed Rec Center.
And since my son has been thoroughly neglected these days in the photo department, I thought I'd share a quick photo I took of him on the day of his 8th grade graduation pictures. He was so proud of his tie. He picked it out all by himself. It is a Donald Trump tie......... ; ) He is looking so grown up........a young man.....no baby left in him.......*sigh* I guess that's what children do........

Thank you for sharing your Cute project and that boot is super cute!! Nice photo's as well! You have a very sweet Family!! I have never tryed to do shrinky dinks yet. But I did try my hand at glass etching, except that the glass was coated with something that prevented it to etch.Maybe paint, I bought the vase at A local thrift store. any the results were kinda surprising! I have it posted on my Blog.
