Cowgirl Love

I recently discovered this local digi artist (MayzyArt) on Etsy and wanted to share her with you. There are several of her creations that are on my wish list but I had to snag this cutie cowgirl right away. The best part about her shop - digis are almost all only $2 each! Very easy on the pocketbook.

I have to say that she was an absolute JOY coloring with my copic markers (sorry I didn't write down which ones this time). The lines on the digi were easy and there was enough detail to her outfit to play with the colors. I put her on a birthday card. 

Paper is DCWV "The Green Stack" - made from recycled paper. I have to admit, I bought this paper stack on a whim, but I have actually used it a TON in boy cards. The browns, blues, and greens are very masculine. With two little girls, most of my paper is very pink or purple (with sparkles). The stamp is from CTMH, brads are from Hobby Lobby (don't remember brand), and I used the Sizzix Sizzlits - Decorative Label Set #4.


The inside was fun. I'm really working on trying to dress up the insides to go with the theme of the card. It just gives it that extra special touch. I used my brown Hemptique bakers twine on the front and then I added a "lasso" to the inside of the card. I just adhered it with mini glue dots. Since I had already written in the sentiment before taking the photo, I covered it up with white paper for this picture.


I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Mad for Markers - Anything Goes
Crafty Catch Weekly Challenge - Anything Goes
Oozak Challenge #5 - Fall Themed (blue skies and fall leaves in the background of the card)
