OWH Final Challenge - Home Sweet Home


I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to do this challenge since I don't have any Texas stamps.  Then a song came to my mind - "The Yellow Rose of Texas".  The name Texas is based on a Caddo Indian word meaning "friends".  I'm originally from Wisconsin, and I don't have any cow or cheese stamps either, so I think this is the way to go.  Yellow roses are also my favorite rose too.

    1. I sponged on the inks from SU - Daffodil Delight, a little More Mustard and Lucky Limeade for the leaves. Thanks for commenting.

  5. I knew right away you must be from TX Marilyn. One of my closest friends in school had moved from TX to MD in 7th grade. I still remember her regaling us with Texas songs!

    Your ink work is absolutely stunning on this card. I think our heroes will be quick to call dibs on this card. :)
