FRAME FRIDAY.....She's A little Bit Country

So keeping with the theme of the month my frame this month is a cowgirls frame  and I wanted to share it with you.

So I used a piece of Burlap paper to cover the front of the frame then inked the edges with Ranger Distress ink in Vintage photo to create an aged look. Next I took denim fabric and created my own ribbon which I layered down the right side of the frame. Next I took 2 denim colored flowers by paper studio and adhered to the top of the ribbon.

Next I printed the cowgirl and sentiment onto card stock using Gecko Galz Ride Em Cowgirl craft kit and cut them out then inked the edges with my brown ink. Now I layered the cowgirl to the left side of the frame and the sentiment on the right and finished it off with Viva pearl pen in silver.

This makes a great cowgirl gift for your bestie.
