For WT972 Wild West, I found a reason to use my cowgirl diecut. I cut her out twice to layer her with a pink cowboy hat. Then, I used some scraps to fill in the negative space with pink. The background landscape paper is from Paper Rose Watercolor Landscapes, which I received in the mail just a couple of days ago. The timing couldn't have been better!
For the sentiment, I created it in Canva and printed it out. To finish off the card, I added some twine for embellishment, but I loved the way it looked so much that I used the twine to frame the card. The twine truly added a great finishing touch and pulls the card together. It was all completely unplanned, but it turned out to be a nice discovery.
Thank you for the closer look!

What luck that you just got the perfect wild west type paper just before this challenge...it goes great with the cowgirl die. Your use of the two different papers for the die works out really well. And the framing...well...I love good framing (Sabrina is a good framer) and your twine frame was meant to be.

Cool die, I like the layers in it. Perfect choice of font for the sentiment. I'm glad that paper has just arrived, it is perfect. I was going to say it made me think of Australia, all the red hues. If it's Paper Rose I guess maybe it actually is Australia.
