While sorting through my stash, I found several sheets of metal card stock I'd won several years ago when an online store was closing. I never opened the package until I made this card. I used a Gina Marie Designs Peekaboo Rectangle die set to make all the panels, the copper color being the metal. I also used some daffodil and pumpkin pie card stock to give this a "sundown" appearance. The cowboy die cut was a gift from my blogging friend and it fit perfectly on the metal piece. I added 3 black tiny negative circles from previous die-cuts, and a gold-embossed sentiment on a snippet of black. I added a die-cut negative star just for fun to that panel and then added a piece of twine for a rope accent. The vertical metal border was done with the same set of dies, only I used the outer portion for this panel.
I'm entering this card into the following challenges:
the Little Red Wagon #488 Boyz II Men - masculine creations
Cardz4Guyz #125 - to Die for (use dies)
Wishing you all a great Friday and thanks for stopping by!

Simply awesome Carol. Love every detail especially the cowboys rope. Fabulous layer colours and die used.
Very innovative way to get a sunset look! I do like his rope!!
Cool, the silhouette cowboy works really well with the warm tones of cardstock and the copper metal sheet. My favourite bit is the little lasso, its so sweet and oh so masculine of course hehe x
Awesome colors and layers and I love the scene you created. The fiber used for a rope looks awesome with the design too.
Great card and love that horse die too.x
