Happy Sunday!
Happy Mother's Day's to those of you in the UK!
Hope you are warm, dry and well wherever you are.
I chose this Splitcoaststampers sketch for my layout design, after resizing it to sit inside of an A7 card front. I also moved the sentiment down a bit. The moment I saw this sketch, I knew it was perfect for my CAS card.
👌
Supply List:
SU A7 card base
Paper scraps from my stash
Altenew mountain dies
Paper Roses chunky barbed wire corner die
Rubbernecker cowboy on horse die
Sizzix star dies
Clear Dollar sentiment label dies
Pink By Design and MFT sentiment stamps
Nocturne Versafine Clair ink
WRMK Corner Rounder
I decorated the inside of the card. I have a computer-generated sentiment that I composed and framed in PSE before printing out. I included a couple more stars and two Rubbernecker western critter dies that were in my bits and bobs box leftover from previous projects, a roadrunner and a fox.
Overhead shot...
And the back with another paper scrap from stash and a stamped and circle-punched siggie.
And final view.

I do love a good western scene and it made me happy to create one, plus I got to use a few dies that haven't seen much daylight.
Well, tomorrow is the Spring Equinox, but it doesn't really feel like it to me with all the dreary rain and cold we're having. It is supposed to be a bit warmer Tuesday through Thursday, but then another rainy front is coming Friday evening. Sunny and cold would be a lot better! LOL, a month from now, I'll be wishing I was still having this weather, probably.

Thanks for visiting, and I hope you are enjoying the rest of your weekend!

What a fun card and the sentiment is terrific. So glad you joined us at Die Cut Divas for our “Anything Goes” challenge.
Great masculine card with a very specific theme! Thanks for sharing with us at MTTC :)
Ranch-tastic!!! Farm-tastic!! Fantastic!! Wonderful card! Living in the Midwest, I've been to some rodeos and I've also lived in the DFW for 2 years. While there and when back to visit, I've been to the Mesquite rodeo several times and been to downtown Ft. Worth around the livestock area. Thanks for helping me to reminisce! I appreciate your participation for FarmQuest General Store! --Becca
Thanks for also linking your terrific mountain riding cowboy card to FQCB! Your support is greatly appreciated! --Becca
Fabulous card Aimeslee, I'm a horsey girl and when younger dreamt of rodeo riding, here in the UK it's rather more sedate! Yellowstone has been screening over here and we absolutely loved it.
Many thanks for sharing with us at Allsorts challenge this week and using the colour option.

Don't ask me why but I love western themed items, so I really like your card. I like how you layered the various papers to look like the mountains and then added the black die cuts. And took the photo on some wood that looks like it could be western itself. Yee Haw- I hope you're having a good day yourself. And Happy spring too. Hugs-Erika
I apologize for not keeping up with my commenting. I have been in Michigan for the birth of my newest grandson. Not it’s catch up time! Wow, love this card! Especially love the layers on the front and that great border. Perfect western card.
A very unique way of using the sketch. I love it! How appropriate for you to have made these cards at rodeo time. It was a very interesting read. Glad you have such fond memories.
This is just brilliant, great scene. Thank you for sharing with us at Allsorts challenge.
That's a fabulous card Aimeslee, just perfect for your friend.
