I'm so excited about the sets we are previewing today... they are absolutely adorable and so much fun to color!  Today, you'll see Wild West, Moka Jesse, Moka Jane, Moka Angel, and School A la Carte from the Baker's Dozen.

 I'm using Moka Jesse and Wild West on my card... and they work just perfectly with each other.  Wild West is a full side set on a full color sturdy storage panel and it includes 16 images/sentiments.   Moka Jesse is a new addition to the Nancy McKinney Moka collection and includes 7 images and sentiment.  (Moka Jane is his adorable counterpart-- so jump around to see the cute cards you can make with her!) 

I had fun coloring Jesse with a little vintage/rustic flair and used papers from Cosmo Cricket 1934.  The coloring is all with copic markers.. I used a brushed stroke to get the aging on his hat.. and added some vintage distress ink to the edges of the card stock.  

Before I go, here are links to the Baker's Dozen so you can see tons of fun eye candy!
