Cowgirl Annie

Hello!  Well we survived the big party trip yesterday with very few spills and accidents and plenty of food.  I broke a coffee cup but that's just because I'm clumsy.  I even managed to get rid of some leftover sweets (brownies, meringues, anzac biscuits, sultana biscuits, ginger slice, and peppermint slice) to the lovely crew from other boats on the dock who helped catch lines for us as we were coming back to our berth.  I'm 'helping' my crew not to get too fat, although I did leave them a few sweet treats : )

Anyway, I have a quick card to share with you today that I made last week using Annie's Hat from Tiddly Inks.  She's adorable!  I found her in the basement, but since the basement has now been boarded up, she has been moved to the main shop.





















The little tab at the side pulls out...








































I made this card for the current challenge at Stampin for the Weekend which is a fabulous sketch:















The papers I have used are from October Afternoon (Sasparilla) as are the cowgirl stickers and the tab sticker.  The Best Day Ever card is from Simple Stories and I added the 'Have the' using October Afternoon Sticky Keys.

Here's a close-up of Annie:




















And here are the copics I used:















I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Stampavie and More: For a Girl

Don't forget to enter our new challenge at Tiddly Inks that started this week! It's an easy one...Father's Day or Masculine.  Hope to see you there!
