Retro Sketches #25

Last night, Jen came over for our weekly stamping night, and I got busy with some of my new stuff! Here is a thank you card I created with two of my new Paper Smooches stamp sets that I got with some birthday money, and paper from a My Mind's Eye paper pack my mom got me :)


Here is the sketch I used for this card. I changed it up a little bit, but the sketch is still there.


The horse silhouette is from the "Buckaroo" set and the sentiment is from the "Chit Chat" set. The frame behind the horse is from the PTI polaroid set that I ordered with this month's release items. I already cut out the polaroid for another card (you'll be seeing that soon as it's my PTI blog hop card!) and it was just sitting there, I thought, humm maybe I'll use this ;)


I used a Copic to outline parts of the letters so that they really pop. The buttons, ribbon, and cardstock are all from PTI.




This card came out with a real south western, Arizona type feel, what do you think?

  2. What a fun card. I love how you used that 'thanks' I have that one from PS, and I am always stumped by it. Also, your horse is very sweet in that frame.

  7. Sorry I am so behind - love the mustang and the desert feel - the rust and aqua is like turquoise in the desert - very pretty! The chevrons even add to the native feel!
