TSG February new release sneak peek 2

If you missed my Mo's Digital Pencil post for today please click here.

     Here's the second new release for this month and YEEHAW it's a rootin' tootin' cast of characters.


     Cowboys and western themes are all the rage right now, and we wanted IN on this super popular trend….and boy did Torico deliver!! Our new Giddy Up set is so fun, you’ll be roped in!

     Giddy Up is a 6x8 set that includes a total of 26 stamps and will sell for $24.00.


     I had to give this here cow poke some horses and leather.  I mean he is a cowboy after all.  The "leather" strip is grunge paper that I ran through my Cuttlebug with an embossing folder and inked with distress ink.  It even feels like leather.
     Would you like to win the new Giddy Up  stamp set? Here is what you need to do- visit the Trendsetter’s blogs that are participating in each of the blog hop challenges below and comment on their creations as you go. One of the Trendsetter’s blogs (from each hop day) will be randomly chosen as the ‘it’ blog and a winner will be picked using a random number generator from the comments left on that Trendsetter’s Blog Hop Challenge post.
     You will not know which blog has been chosen so the more you comment on the better your chances are of winning new stamps! The Blog Hop Challenges will be open until 5 PM Eastern Time Saturday, February 23rd with the winner being announced during the release party chat.


Supplies:  Paper--Cosmo Cricket "Wanted", Kraft Outlet Light Kraft and chipboard, Tim Holtz Grunge Paper, Copic XPress-it Blending card; Stamp--There She Goes Clear Stamps "Giddy Up"; Ink--Copics, Vintage Photo Distress ink; Tools--Martha Stewart Flourish border punch, EK Success Corner rounder, MFT Die-namics Mini Tab die, Cuttlebug Damask embossing folder; Miscellaneous--Recollections brads, Spare Parts brads, Kraft Outlet Earthy Hemp Cord

Lisa Minckler said...

Wow,now he is something terrific!! My kind of country card Hick. :) You have really been cranking out some incredible cards here lately. What am I saying? You always DO, but I have really had the best time taking them all in. Just finished up painting ALL of my craft room furniture and turning it shabby country chic (Did I mention I moved it all by myself too?) THEN shoveled 10 inches of snow yesterday so I can barely move a muscle in my body. Fortunately I can stabilize my arms and use my fingers to type this ;) Just wanted to tell you that I have been following your cards, just haven't commented in a bit due to the fact that what energy I still might have at quitting time is trying to fight the lid off the Bayer Back and Body Ache bottle. ;)
Thanks so much for the creative and inspiring reprieve you always deliver.
HUGE hugs,
Twang
