'Yee Haa' we have a new challenge at Cards for Men!

It's time for a brand new challenge at Cards for Men and we have a fab theme for you - 'Wild West' (n.b. card must be for a male). Our sponsor this time is the fab Meljen's Designs. Melissa is offering one lucky person 4 digis of their choice!

"Meljen's Designs is a lovely stamp company owned and illustrated by Melissa Jenkins. She illustrates whimsical rubber and digital images inspired by her kids and family. Meljen's Designs has new releases along with a new challenge every Thursday, freebies every Monday and a Guest Designer each month at the Meljen's Designs Blog.

Please pop over to the CFM challenge blog to check out the details of our new challenge. As always the DT have made some wonderful cards, please do pop across and have a peek and have a go at the challenge while you're there. So onto my DT card, I have used a fab digi image from Meljen's Designs called Billy the Cowboy Bear, you can purchase him here. I love this image, I teamed him with lots of twine and even made a lasso ;-)
