Fancy Friday! Yee Haw!

Welcome to….
Fancy Friday!! Wahoo! Fancy Friday is a bog hop that last year’s Artisan Design Team has decided to do. We are all such fans of each other and were really sad to not be working on anything together, so we decided to come up with a fun monthly blog hop! Hooray!
This month, we all used the following picture for inspiration:
I LOVE every single one of these colors. But I struggle when I have to incorporate lots of colors into one project. I had just received my Yee Haw stamp set and really wanted to use it…. So, I decided to do a sunset background using my good old Brayer and the Blackberry Bliss, Tangelo Twist and Real Red.  (Shhh.. But I used just a TINY bit of yellow at the bottom too! SHH! 🙂
Have you ever tried using a Brayer to create a background? It’s fun but messy! Google it and lots of videos will come up. I got to see a demo while at convention but had to watch  it again before I created this card.
And do you see my shout out to my friend Jane? That cardboard is from a SU box sitting here in my office. She is the fist person I ever saw use it in a project and I knew I would love her even before I met her!! LOL! Isn’t that crazy! But, it’s awesome and so appropriate for this kind of card I think! 
The lasso is stamped on Vellum. If you see a tiny bit of blue sticking out of the hat that’s because I did it in Indigo first and didn’t like it. But, I couldn’t pull it up with out wrecking the whole stack. So, once again,Shhh! Pretend you don’t see it!! 
Now, we are giving away a stamp set this month! You probably have already ready that on the other girl’s blogs, but here it is again:
