Cowpoke

This is a peek-a-boo card I made today. It is folded like a gate fold card, so that it is 5 1/2"x4 1/4" when folded. I used a brown cardstock for the card base. I used a light tan cardstock for the interior of the card, it is 3"x5 1/2." The hole is from a 1" circle punch. I used some blue cardstock, embossed with Distress Stripes for the curtains. The "happy birthday" is a stamp from Fiskars and the "cowpoke" is from Old West, cut at 1 1/2." The hat that shows through is from Old West as well, cut a 1." On the exterior of the card I used the same blue, again embossed with Distress Stripes, and some patterned cardstock from the Guy Stack by DCWV. The scalloped circle is also a punch. I cut a hole about 2 1/2" around the scalloped circle so you could see it. The boot is also from Old West, cut at 2."
This card was made for the following challenges:
