When I found this "Western Boots" image at Pattie's Creations, I knew I needed to use it for a Father's Day card. Since the theme for our new June challenge at Pattie's is "Father's Day or Graduation," I knew it would work perfectly for my DT card this month.
The image and the sentiment were printed at the same time. I used my ProMarkers to color the boots and then I cut the image with a die from Spellbinders. I added a brown CS backing and hand cut it to the outside shape of the die. I found those pieces of gingham check dp in the scrap basket and rescued them just for this card. I layered those onto some red CS which I first ran through my 'Linen' embossing folder. The twine was the final touch and I frayed the ends to make it more distressed looking. All of that went onto the card front and everything was from my stash.
