Good Morning!! It's the 1st of the month (where does the time go) and that means it's my turn to share with you a creation using an image from Elisabeth Bell's Digital Collection.
I was inspired to use Bell Horses - Li'l Cowboy after almost being run over by my three year old son last week as he was running through the house pretending to be riding a horse. LOL :) At least he did yell over his shoulder, "oops 'cuse me Mommy" while riding away. So how could I be upset about that?!?! Even if I was, he wouldn't have heard me. He was too busy shouting, "Giddy up par'ner" and "Hee Yaw"! That boy is Wicked Crazy I tell ya!! LOL Good thing he's so handsome. I'm certain it's saved him from many of scouldings and will continue to do so in the future too. (So says my husband, LOL)
See.... Case in point....This is a picture of him last week after he charmed the Nurse into giving him a lollipop when his SISTER was there to see the Doctor. He was just tagging along but still charmed his way into getting a treat too!! LOL :)

What a nice card, really love it
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card and great coloring. Love these images...wish I had some to color :)
ReplyDeleteYour card is overshadowed by that handsome little boy in the picture below it!! I can definitely see him charming his way out of a lot of scoldings lol
ReplyDeleteI love the card though Wendy. Great patterned paper and colors. Love the embossing folder you used and as always your coloring on that adorable image is amazing!! I love the 'mustache' below the Handsome sentiment lol Beautiful work!
Those embossed stars are perfect for that little sheriff - & the colouring on your boots just glows - butter wouldn't melt in his mouth & he must have been brought up correctly (!) to apologise. As for your layering - I love the way you've used both green & brown double matted for the outer section - besides these are just my favourite colours - greens & blues were what I was marbling with yesterday - so I turned the bathwater aqua........when I had a bath, just as well I did that before skinning my husband's fish for dinner................!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing about your family - makes me smile no end.

ReplyDeleteYour little guy is a handsome little man! I'm sure he could charm me out of my chocolate - and that's a tough thing to do!!
(Thanks so much for your kind comments on my blog. I'm always so incredibly blessed to read them. If I can help with your son's invitations in any way, please let me know. I wish the world wasn't such a big place sometimes as I'd be there to help in a heartbeat if I could - for nothing more than friendship and conversation.)
