I love Laurie's Western theme this week at the Paper Players! I grew up watching Westerns on TV with my dad.
WagonTrain.....Rifleman.....Gunsmoke.....Bonanza...Rawhide....Roy Rogers and Dale Evans......Annie Oakley......Gene Autry.......Wyatt Earp....
I am dating myself but I know some of you are nodding and singing the theme songs in your head! My mother is a city gal born in England and could never understand the allure of campfires, horses and wide open spaces! I think she did figure out the allure of cowboys though....... ;0)
Anyway......when our new neighbors move in down the street I will package up some cookies with this card tucked inside. And there's a new sheriff in town these days......I will take her along to guard the shipment!
Stamp Set: Home Sweet Home by Avery Elle
Ink: Distress Inks for background and Zig markers for teepees
Die Cuts: Stitched Mountains, Stitched Hillsides
What a cool card! Love your background layers and your sentiment is just perfect with your images. I am quite certain that the little sheriff was a huge help guarding the cookies...too cute! :)
ReplyDeleteYep, those were ones my dad watched too....and DH STILL watches them on Antenna TV! What a great theme for your western card...surprised I have not seen this stamp in blogland before! AND how cute is your little cowgirl...and her horse! Just adorable!
ReplyDeleteLinda, I used to watch all the Westerns, too! I must admit, Little Joe Cartwright had a piece of my heart! I still want to be a cowgirl when I grow up! Your little Sheriff is ADORABLE!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI can not begin to tell you how much I LOVE this card! I collect Native American art and this card speaks to me! I want one when I move to my new home! HINT HINT! And by the way, your coloring is amazing! XXXX Have a great week, My Friend!
Cute card. The tepees are great and I love your coloring and the mountains. Your new neighbors will love it. I only watched a few of those shows...most were too scary for me. I didn't like guns and fights way back then. Who knew how scary the world would become with open carry laws!
ReplyDeleteLOL..fun post to read! I remember some of the shows. I love your tepees and mountains...what an awesome western scene!
ReplyDeleteHave a rootin' tootin' Sunday!
You're right, you've got me hummin'! I love those tee-pee stamps & dies and what a cute "welcome" they'll give your new neighbors, especially accompanied by that cute sheriff!
ReplyDeleteThis is fantastic! And who doesn't understand the allure of cowboys :)
ReplyDeleteI think that sheriff might be a pink cookie bandit in disguise! No disguising the cleverness and creativity of this card, though. Great colors and I adore the layout. Your new neighbors will love it!
ReplyDeleteWow, your teepees are awesome and what a perfect new home card, Linda! And my goodness, can that little cowgirl be any cuter?!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fab card Linda - I hadn't even considered red indians - my creative mind is now racing once more! I love your little sherriff too; brings back memories of my daughter in her pink stetson and cowgirl waistcoat too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful design and colors Linda.
ReplyDeleteHugs Diane
Cute, cute and colorful "neighborhood" houses. Love them.
ReplyDeleteLinda love your take on the "new neighborhood"... so cute! and speaking of cute... nothing cuter than your new Sheriff! Hugs.
