Today's sets are so fun! The sets are: "Wild West", "Moka Jesse", "Moka Jane", "Moka Angel", and "School A la Carte." That's a lot of stamps for one day! Be sure, today of all days, to check everyone's blog so you see all the sets. I am using Moka Jane and a sentiment from Wild West!
"Wild West* is a full sized set on a 5.75" x 8.5" storage panel and includes 16 images/sentiments. It was illustrated by Nancy McKinney for the Whimsical Wishes line and perfectly coordinates with Moka Jane and Moka Jesse. The "Mokas" each come on a 3" x 5.5" full color sturdy storage panel and were also designed and illustrated by Nancy McKinney for the Moka Collection. Jane and Jesse each have 7 total images and sentiments, Angel has 5.
And, introducing...Moka Jane! EEEK! She is so adorable with the big ole' cowgirl hat and those red boots! I colored her in with my Prismacolor pencils to make the colors really rich. The sentiment is from the Wild West set!
I cut out a second cowgirl hat and popped it up on some foam tape to add dimension to her. I like the fresh combination of red and yellow with kraft. Will have to use that again for sure.
I used the current TESC sketch #143 for my layout inspiration....LOVE this sketch.
Do you like my fringe?? hee hee.
