This week Kathy challenged the CCEE Stampers to make a tag or a card with a tag. A friend of mine recently got the SU Wild Wild West stamp set for me. It was retired several years ago and has become a very popular item. It is very hard to get and on ebay they are selling for big bucks. I am happy to say that this Man lives with me now. ~smile~ I am combining the CCEE challenge with the Twisted Sisters challenge this week. The twisted sisters challenge is to make a card with wildlife on it and add paint for extra credit. Okay, now your wondering how this card relates to wild life, aren't you? Well, this man is wanted by all women and ya never know whose house he might be found at, therefore, he is liking his Wild Life. That is the fun part of the challenges is to see how everyone has a different way of thinking. For the extra credit part of it, I painted a tag, sent to me by Blooms in a Box. I used gold paint and sponged brown ink over it to tone it down a little. I also sponged over the tag with my man on it. Sue gave me this awesome paper and brads that are so perfect with the stamp set.

Mmm...Mmmm....no question 'bout the wild life portrayed here Shirt! Loud and clear- "MAN" wild life. Sister, I totally love your design and the magic you made with that tag! Super delish.

Holy schmokes, Sistah, your mojo is SMOKIN' mighty HOT!!
You sure worked this paper and that leathery tag to the max to frame out your riding cowboy - those touches of suede and the brads, with the burlap ribbon in the midst of it gives your masterpiece such a rustic, manly feel - love all the texture you added - what a super card!! You really poured out you love of da Man on this one!! LYMI

Umph.....what, no "Tater P I N K"? Scaredy cat?
Love your take on the "wild life". After all the emails we sent to SU, you'd think they'd bring him back. I've been spying EBAY too but can't afford so I'll just depend on my Twisted Sistahs to keep my supplied with images of him..............H I N T H I N T!!!!!
