A Little Country

Howdy friends!
I am getting ready to go on an 8 day cruise and can't wait to take a break from life for a bit. :) 
I wanted to share these cards today from Whimsy's last release.  The first card uses the Rocky Range and Pines Die set.  I created the scene and popped certain elements up with Crafty Foam Tape.  The cowboy is from the Range Riders Die set.  I made him look "rusty" using Grit paste, inks in brown, orange, and black and a bit of gold.  I added the fence, a sentiment strip and the frame was from the Mitered Frames Dies and paired it with the Cottage Core papers. The wooden stars have been a part of my stash I think forever! 

My second card uses the image from the Cowgirl Life stamp set. I added a bit of color to her hair and shirt with Copics and cut the image out using the Wavy Pierced Rectangle Dies. I distressed it with brown inks and added another layer behind it using the Antique Frames Die set. I used the Cottage Core papers again because I love the rustic feel of them! Jute and fabric were tied horizontally to finish off the card. 
Thank you so much for stopping by today!
Have a wonderful 4th of July my American friends! :)
