I just made a card for Terry, who's the recipient of the Teaparty cards this week, (Terry is Charlene's, aka lilluvstampin, husband) - since there are some die-cut glittery stars, it fits the glittery Ways To Use It challenge today also. The stars are very sparkly but it doesn't show up well in the photo. Because Terry's a law abiding cowboy, I made some silver stars by heat embossing brads with silver ink and powder - to symbolize Terry's honorary SHERRIF's badge. I thought the red dp looked kind of like a bandana print, and the fonts used to make the sentiment are appropriately named STAGECOACH and STEAMER. I also used sewing on my card to represent the Clint Eastwood movie Hang 'Em High - if you want to know the connection there you'll have to check out the Teaparty Challenge!

Bridget, you are amazing! What a FABULOUS card for Terry! Your red, white and blue color palette is so bright and cheerful and those stars (even more awesome that they are sparkly!!!) really look so cool, I especially like the ones you popped out! I think you must be Queen of Twine tying with amazing bows!!!! LOVE how you do that so incredibly!!! Also, I LOVE your sewing! It truly adds so much! This went into my favorites before I even started typing this little novel! LOL Love it all Bridget!
Oh wow, Bridgit! This is absolutely fabulous and perfect for the tea party this week. I've been struggling because I don't have any western stamps, thanks for the inspiration!
