My card today meets 2 challenges. First up is
Oozak's first challenge of "anything goes". There is also a challenge over on the OWH Stars & Stamps blog this month to make a card for the
ODBD April challenge to use an animal on your card. OWH is also asking for masculine cards so I made this one for Dad. I'm sure there are a lot of dads out there who will enjoy this cowboy image. The image is by Inkadinkado and I colored all 3 with Copics and matted them with scraps of gold cardstock. The background is cherry cobbler, and the star border at the top was done with a SNSS die, cut in turquoise and gold, with the stars swapped out for a little color interest. The sentiment is a stamp from MFP, done with word window and fancy label punches, and another little black star added just for fun. I added some paper piercing to the black panel which you can probably see better if you click the photo to enlarge it. I don't know why I used this color combination, it just seemed to work as I was creating.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!

Copics used: YR30, YR31, YR18, YR15, YR12, R46, 100

Fabulous card, Carol. I LOVE what you did with the border and "swapping" it out with the yellow stars. Very cool!
