Father's Day Cowboy Boots!

Whew!!! Are you ready for a card that meets the requirements for a lot of challenges?!?! The first challenge is a sketch challenge over at Mojo Monday's - isn't it a great sketch?


The next challenge is over at Whimsical Wednesdays - Father's Day Card of Project. Then we have the #1 Dad Challenge over at Fantabulous Cricut. Also linking this to the Father's Day Challenge over at the Creative Cutter Room. Finally, the challenge over at My Craft Spot - Tie It On - use ribbon or twine on your project.

For this card, I used another one of my new Unity sets from the sale last weekend - Brave Girl Boots (shhh...don't tell that the name says girl and it's a Father's Day card!). The circle and scallop frame are cut with my Cricut using Elegant Edges cartridge and inked a little with some Tim Holtz distress ink. The scallop edge on the bottom is also cut from that cartrtidge. I did some machine stitching, a little doodling, hand cut the two banners at the bottom, and tied on a bit of black jute cord. Finished off with a sentiment from Emma's stamp set called You're My Best Buddy.

 
And...as a grand finale - I am also linking this with the Thursday Patches of Pink Link up Party!
