Tues-Steppin'! Texas Style...

I love this!!! I folowed a tutorial by Michelle Zindorf HERE. However, I didn't have the same stamps or cardstock, so I made what I had work for me. This is my card for Libby's Texas Tues-Step this week.
Hope you like it as much as I do!

Texas Tues-Step - Howdy!

This is my Texas Tues-Step for this week. I followed a Michelle Zindorf tutorial. However, mine is no where near as good as hers. But I still think it represents TEXAS!

My poppies are were stamped in Basic Black and colored with my blender pen using Cherry Cobbler, Cajun Craze, and Pumpkin Pie. I started with the lightest color first working my way in towards the flowers' centers. Then on the stems and leaves I colored with Pear Pizzazz first and then I used Old Olive in the creases of the leaves and around the edges. Once my coloring was complete, added Glossy Accents to all of the flowers.
The "TWIST" in the Twisted Sketches Challenge this week was to use die cuts. Well, it may be hard to tell but the small scalled green border and the yellow pinked border are both die cut stickers. The lacey scalloped is a border punch.
The sentiment as well as the poppies are from There She Goes. Buttons and twine are from my stash.

HOWDY! - LTXTS & MOJO172

Howdy from the Heart of Texas!
For my card I used stamps from Deabeat Designs & Texana Designs. I stamped my bluebonette in Night of Navy and colored with my Stampin' Up! markers in Brilliant Blue, Marina Mist, Tempting Torquoise and Daffodil Delight. I had some chipboard hearts lying around so I added them as per the MOJO172 sketch design.
This is my card for Trail Boss Libby's Texas - Tues - Step. We create something Texas related on every 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month. Please visit the rest of the Posse member's blogs to see what beautiful Texas-y something or t'other they have created for your eyes to gander. Remember to leave some love!
