This is the card I made for this week's Teapot Tuesday challenge.
This is my story:
1. I used Challenge option #1 ~ Clint Eastwood's movie, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly!
2. Yes, sir, uh huh, I did too use the cuttlebug! Its on the middle panel, paisley embossing folder! Geeze guys!!
3. This card will be mailed to Terry, the husband of fellow Teapotter Charlene (LilLuvsStampin), to cheer him up while he waits for a kidney to come available to him. If you would like to make a card for Terry Merrick as well, click here, and join us at the teaparty this week!
4. Guess what? I went out and bought two Clint Eastwood movies....The Outlaw Josey Wales and Pale Rider! Tee hee! I think I am gonna get a little collection going....I love Clint Eastwood! No sir, nuh huh, it's not because he reminds me of the Wild, Wild, West man! Geeze...you guys are feisty today! Good thing our teaparty is in the Wild, Wild, West today!

You have such an eye for layout and design. Terry is probably going to frame your card!
Watching the weather to see if we need to start early to your part of the state.

Wow! Did you and Gertie actually do some sewing??? It is "sew" cool!! I love the paisley embossing and the rich colors, too. As a former rodeo rider, you sure know how to make a magnificent cowboy-themed card. It is very, very handsome (ya gotta say handsome when it comes to masculine, right?)
Cindy, thank you VERY much for making this terrific card for Terry. I know he appreciates all you did for organizing this challenge on his behalf, and I know he's going to love your handsome card as much as I do.
Me and Bertie loves ya!!!
(P.S. Your card does not show up in the MMTPT229 gallery, no matter what kind of search I do for it, so I'm really glad you sent me the link.)
