Lucky to be alive!


     Ooops!  Forgot to post this yesterday.  I made this for my uncle's birthday this year.  He loves old westerns and we ALWAYS get each other snarky cards.  The image is from Art Impressions stamps and it's called "Slim".
     Here's the fun sentiment I put on the inside of the card.

Try It On Tuesdays--one for the boys

     Hope you're all having a great day.  I'll be back tomorrow with something special from Art Impressions.
