Cowboys and Cowgirls for Color Throwdown

 


These are colors that I most likely would rarely use...it's a good challenge for me to work with this Color Throwdown palette.  Digging through my dies, I was looking for something that would work well with these masculine colors...and I found this horse and riders die.  For me, this isn't an unrealistic image; I live in a rural area where there are cattle people who all ride horses.  We also have a large group of teenagers who participate in "rodeo" activities all summer.  

 


This is a photo from last summer....my 13-year-old great niece at one of the junior rodeos.

Oh! Nice, Evelyn! I completely understand about this image. I spent a summer in Pendleton as a teenager while preparations were happening for the roundup. Also, my friend in Yoncalla has grandkids very much like your niece. Good stuff for kids!
