Wild West Christmas

This is a Wild West gift set that I made
for someone in my family. Using a brown craft gift bag, I added a strip of Outlaw paper to the front using SNAIL. I then stamped the horse from the Wanted set in Chocolate Chip Classic Ink onto Whisper White Cardstock, and layered it onto Sage Shadow Cardstock.
I added a silver heart embellishment for a little extra touch.

I then created a set of 4 tile coasters using the Bronc Buster set. I stamped the image onto 4" bottochino tiles (from Home Depot) using brown Stazon.
I inked the edges of the tile with the Stazon too.

Then my blog surfing brought me to the final project for the gift set. I was looking at Diane's blog and her beautiful Christmas stamped candle holders. Check them out on her blog... http://stampwithdiane.blogspot.com/2007/11/stamped-candles-and-candle-holders.html
I knew they would be the perfect addition to my gift set with year-round cowboys stamped on them. I got the glass containers at the Dollar Store and used brown Stazon to stamp the images. I let them dry overnight, and presto... cute glass containers to add to my gift. I am planning on adding some rootbeer jelly beans to the container with the lid, and a votive to the open container.
