Kenny K Cowgirl

    Out with  the pink and girly and in with the brown and masculine!
    I've used 2 different DPs - one with a fabric print and one with animal print. The one with animal print was one of the first DPs I bought, and for some reason I've never used it - at first because I liked it so much and wanted to hang on to it, then is disappeared in the bottom of my pile of papers...
    I love cream and brown colors, and I think they would work well with this sassy cowgirl from Kenny K. I've colored her using Promarkers - I have now a "I love to color with Promarkers phase", but I won't  forget my beloved watercolor pencils ...
    I tried the layout with some different die cut shapes too behind the image, but decided against it and kept the design clean. A bit of suede and metal, a ticket with sentiment, and voilà!

    This card is for these challenges:

    3) LEJ Designs - #36 Use Metal

      Very sassy, country card...great for a guy card!
      You sure coloured her well...the skin tones are so perfect!

      I like the papers behind the image...I think I have some of those too...you are inspiring me...but i don't have those sassy images! Maybe it is time to do a little Kenny K shopping...

      Off to catch up on back posts as I have been a bit neglectful lately...a combination of being busy reorganizing my house and my craft room...DH retired so we converted his office into a den...so much filing to go through and shred!!! Kept me from visiting...Soon O will be finished in my craft room...then I can create too:)

      Great card, Pia!
