Texas Tuesday!

Howdy! Welcome to another edition of Texas Tuesday! Today, this week, this month - the main Texas-y thing on my brain is my favorite cycling Texan - LANCE ARMSTRONG!! It's Tour de France month! WOOHOO!! Well, if you saw my card a few days ago, you already knew that I'm obsessed. LOL! I couldn't help myself, I had to make another Tour-inspired card for Texas Tuesday!


The cute bike and clouds are from Hero Arts. I had all kinds of fun with this card, adding sequin flowers to the basket, liquid applique to the clouds and a fun little banner telling Lance to allez, as the French would say...


Ahhh Lance, how I love him so. Sadly this year is (once again!) his final Tour. So sad! And the way the first few days have gone, I sure hope he survives until the end. It's been brutal - lots of carnage on the Belgian & French countryside so far.


At any rate - most of you couldn't give three hoots about Lance or the Tour (*gasp!*), so I will get you on your merry way. Make sure to check out my Texas Tuesday buddies, I know so far Mark, Tina, Jennifer and Betty have created cards, so swing by and tell them hi. And until next time - happy trails (and cobbles and mountain passes...) to you!


  • Stamps: F5293 Bicycle and S5215 Clouds from Hero Arts, alphabet from Stampin Up
  • Paper: Kraft, green, white, yellow
  • Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Ranger Distress Ink in Barn Door and Tumbled Glass
  • Accessories: Liquid Applique, twine, Sakura Glaze pens (clear & black), Martha Stewart scissors, flower sequins (old Hero Arts)
