playing with new designer paper...

-

When the Outlaw designer paper retired in December I was a little bummed. I really like that paper so when I saw that the new catalog had the Western Sky designer paper, which is the same patterns but different colors I had to give it a try. I kinda let it sit there for several weeks because I wasn't too sure about the colors but I dragged them out today.

I used Beate's weekend sketch challenge to make this really quick and simple card. I know it has a bunch of layers but it really was very quick. I just layered the designer paper with blue bayou and river rock card stock. The greeting and horse are stamped on whisper white, the greeting in blue bayou and the horse in river rock. I also sponged the edges of the whisper white card stock with river rock classic ink.

What I used:
Wanted stamp set
Blue Bayou, River Rock and Whisper White card stock
Western Sky designer paper
Blue Bayou and River Rock classic ink pads
Blue Bayou double stitched grosgrain ribbon
sponge
