Red Carpet Studio Guest Designer!!


Hi everyone!! I'm so excited to be a guest designer this month at Red Carpet Studio!! If you haven't visited their blog before, head over there now...you won't be disappointed!! They have awesome challenges, both cards and layouts, and a very talented design team!!


The challenge this week is "western" inspired by old western films. Think cowboys, cacti, horses, etc... The sponsor this week is Dude Time Doodles, and they will be providing the winner with a $10 gift certificate to their store!!


For my western-themed card, I started with kraft paper and then added wood plank paper from My Mind's Eye Dolled Up stack. The oval design is a Spellbinders Floral Ovals die, cut on faux-leather paper from DCWV. The burlap was cut with a Spellbinders Classic Ovals die. The horse is from Old West. The stars are Spellbinders dies, embossed with copper embossing powder. The label is a Spellbinders Nested Pennant die. "Whoa! Daddy" is from K Andrew Designs Guy Talk stamp set.

Head on over to Red Carpet Studio to see the amazing projects the design team has created for today's challenge!! Then link up your western-themed card!! I can't wait to see what you create :)
