FS983, for stampjournal
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: gaylestamps

 For the Featured Stamper Challenge #983, to recognize Laura Fulcher aka stampjournal.

I selected Happy Trails by stampjournal at Splitcoaststampers for the Challenge because I have similar images in my Texas collection and feel that I do not use them enough.

I had intended to create a background similar to hers, yet when I opened a stamp case I found this one already made. It was never used because I was not happy with it, but with the recent phenomenon of having Northern Lights here in North Texas it finally seems right.

I searched in vain for my Tessler cactus dies, hopeful that when I accidentally come across them later I will file them where they belong!

Inside: same as envelope

The weekly FS Challenge can be found here Featured Stamper Forum at Splitcoaststampers so check every Sunday for new inspiration.

Hello North Texas from far West Texas!! I like your snowcapped mountains in the bg of the mottled greensand the fact that your cowboy seems to be fussy?cut from the same stuff. That Molly Ivims sentiment makes me chuckle.

Such a cool card! It's perfect even without those hideaway cactus dies .... no doubt tucked themselves away from these cold days! *wink*

I love your design. The background is just the right backdrop for the cowboy silhouette

This is gorgeous! Such an eye-catching background! I love the energy expressed in the silhouette. I hope you find your dies! Tonight,I spent 20 minutes looking for layering dies that I had used a couple days ago. I finally found them filed under P because I had picked up a stack of postage stamp dies, and apparently they were scooped up as well! Oh, the woes of the crafter. Ha ha!

The moody background sets such a powerful stage for the cowboy silhouette, and the way the greens blend into the snowcapped peaks adds wonderful depth. The sentiment brings a touch of wit that balances the rugged imagery beautifully, making the whole design feel both bold and inviting.
