Now, onto today's card... I've got one for this week's Monday Mania challenge that is being hosted by my bloggin' buddy Jenn! Jenn came up with a recipe challenge to pierce it, punch it & piece it. Now punches for me... no problem, I use those quite a bit. But the piecing and the piercing? Neither one are a regular go-to in my card making repertoire so this is where things got a bit tricky. I sat and thought about the piercing for a bit and when I came across Cheeky Shooter I had a light bulb moment! Not only did the regular piercing remind me of tooled leather but I thought it could look cool to take a larger embossing stylus and pierce it through the paper in a couple of spots creating the look of bullet holes. Then I just pieced Shooter's hat, top and skirt and it was challenge met and I gotta say I love how this card turned out! :)
Thanks for stopping by... I hope you enjoy your Monday as much as I plan to!
