Cosmo Cricket/Cards Magazine sketch

Happy Wednesday! I have a card to share today for a Cosmo Cricket challenge! Debbie Olson has given us this wonderful sketch to combine with our Cosmo Cricket products. Cards Magazine will chose one of the entries for publication...how fun is that! And it falls into the masculine challenge this week over at Wee Memories too. Yeehaw...two for one!

Oh my goodness where to begin; I have so many Cosmo Cricket 6x6 mini pads in my art studio to chose from. So...I decided to go all out fun on this one with one of my favorite papers! The tiny cowboys from the Wanted collection! Love, love, love these little buckaroos!!!

I started with a kraft cardstock base and added my layers of various papers and chipboard pieces from the Wanted collection following the sketch. I did a bit of stitching, distressing and added a piece of rope along with a few teeny tiny stars. Now to ride off into the sunset ~ well not really...I don't have a horse! I'll just take my little Max for a walk instead! ~Lisa
