COWBOYS - Stamp-N-Doodle Challenge

Image "Cowboys On The Rail" by Lynn Crosskill
I love Cowboys!  Some of you may remember the digi that I use about a month ago called "Lonesome Cowpoke," well, this is another of Lynn Crosskill's Cowboy Digis and I just love it!  There is just something "romantic" about the idea of a rough and tough, yet gentle spirited man that is the perception of the American Cowboy!
Over at Stamp-N-Doodle this week, we have a Sketchy Color Challenge.  You must use the sketch and include the color "Peach" in your design.  I don't normally associate the color peach with cowboys, but I though I could put one of them in a rust colored shirt and use a peach colored dp to stay true to the challenge.
All of the papers used on this card are from My Secret Stash.  MSS is not a company it is stuff that I asked people for or, stuff that has been given to me by family and friends and strangers with the words, "I thought you might be able to do something with this on one of your cards."


Here's the sketch


Thanks for dropping by!

    You know peach isn't the color that we associate it with, is it? At least not in the copics. I love this card & you are right about cowboys although I never sat down & thought about it. Thanks for the inspiration. :)
