OWH VCMP - Western Theme

Sandy's Crafty Creations was the last stop on Saturday fro the OWH Virtual Card Making Party.  Her challenge?  Make a Western themed card.  I confess, this was an extremely difficult challenge for me.  Western is not a theme I have ever worked with!!  I know, that is why they call it a challenge!!  I didn't really have the right kind of paper, but I think it works.

Here is my card.

I used the Cricut cartridge "Just Because" Cards.  Boot was cut at 3", the words were cut at 2".  The background star paper was embossed with a star folder.  The card base is kraft paper, and lined with light paper.  I accented the lining by stamping a few small stars.  I think I need to work on my faux stitching!!!
