Western Sky

Hi my friends - I've got a new creation for you today.  This one is for the Monday Greeting Card Challenge over at The Outlawz.  The challenge was to make a Birthday card with a Western Theme.  Here's my entry -

I really like how this one turned out I used SU Soft Sky as my base and also used SU River Rock and Blue Bayou for layers and mats.  The dp is from SU Western Sky.  To create the image I used the horse from Stampin Up Wanted.  To get the look I wanted I used 3 SU Markers and colored on the stamp.  I used Basic Black for the hooves, then kind of outlined the horse with Chocolate Chip and finished by coloring in the image with Close to Cocoa - huffed on the stamp and then stamped on the GP White paper. To get the look of the horse running, I cut a mask of the horse, took a stamp from the SU set Bronc Buster and inked it up with Close to Cocoa and then stamped it off behind the horse so it looks like he's kicking up dust.  Used my Copic marker that looks like River Rock, but I didn't write down the number.  Sorry.  Oh, and sorry, but I don't remember which SU stamp set I got the sentiment from.  I'll have to look that up later.  It's stamped using SU Blue Bayou.

The Sketch I used was an old Mojo Monday sketch - No. 2.

That's it for this one.  I'm on a roll here lately, so stayed tuned for more to come.  Again, thanks for stopping by my blog.  I appreciate all your comments.
