Western Happy Bday Cowboy RWB Card

Created this Western Birthday Card using Stampabilities Mare & Colt Stamp bought some time ago at Hobby Lobby and think it is my first time using it. Decided on Western theme with Red/White/Blue colors.

Stamped the Mare & Colt on Kraft cardstock. Distressed the edges of the Kraft cardstock with Tim Holtz paper distresser and Distress Ink walnut stain. Made the sentiment with Docerela Creations Mix & Match 1 'Happy Birthday' and Lawn Fawn Smitty's ABCs to spell out 'Cowboy.' Used Spellbinder Grommet Tag to cut the sentiment tag out. Used TH brads to attach the sentiment tag.

Used rope with 3 Western charms from Plaid: Cactus, Wishbone & Feather.
