It's the last week of summer break AND it's Fair Week!!! My boys are so excited to go to the rodeo and wear their new cowboy boots...they are counting the days! I woke up at dark o'clock this morning, but forced myself to stay in bed a little while longer. Of course I couldn't sleep because my mind was brewing up images for a fun fair themed card. I knew I wanted to use the super cute cowboy boot from the Bootiful Occasions set. Just wasn't sure about a layout. Until...I saw a sketch at The Paper Players! This is the first time I've checked out their site and I am soooo happy I did! The sketch was perfect for this card!
