Welcome--or should I say "howdy" today instead? The stamped focal image on today's card is Cowboy at Heart from MFT Stamps, and he's a fresh-faced cutie!
These are the Copic markers that I used to color the image--yes, that many. . . I was trying to coordinate his pants with the polka dot patterned paper, and while my BG teens were too intense, my BG 70's were too blue and muted. I ended up base coating with the BG teens, and then adding warm gray to mute them, as well as B20's in the shadow areas. (I'm still away from home and have a limited number of markers with me.) I used a bit of colorless blender on the knees of his pants to fade them.
Papers are from Cosmo Cricket's Wanted Mini Deck. (It's an older one, release din 2010, I think, but when I Googled, it was still available in some places.) I used several Spellbinders die templates on this card, including Charmed I'm Sure for the sentiment tag, A-2 Bracket Borders One for that decorative insert piece (love its stitched look!), and 5" x 7" Matting Basics B for the focal image. A bit of sanding, distress-inking, and stitching, and that was it--one birthday boy card finished! That's it for today--thanks for visiting. :-}
