Hope You're Back in the Saddle Real Soon...

I love, love, love Texas!  As the bumper sticker says, "I'm not from Texas but I got here as soon as I could...".  I saw this cute boot on the Just Because Cards cartridge and wanted to make a shaped card with it.  So, I got out my trusted Gypsy and got to work..


I used the boot shadow layer and set it at 5".  The actual card is not really big (approx. 5" x 3") and might make a great card to tie on a gift bag.


Loving this Texas themed stamp set by Erin Lee Creative - so cute!


Here are both versions of the card - the pink one was for my other blog, Everyday Cricut.  If you haven't been over to Everyday Cricut and you love the Cricut and are looking for (almost) daily inspiration, check it out HERE!

I'm working on getting the Gypsy file up soon - having some 4shared issues...

Have a great day!
