Hi Happy Saturday night. I'm home since my oldest is out on the town, he's 16. Chasing cowgirls, i suppose. Thank goodness for my weekend color challenge from Clear Dollar Stamps. Sarah from Iowa on PCP said use your good stuff, don't save it. (I'm paraphrasing). I took it to heart and broke out these felt stars I got from the Chariton Scrapbooking store.
Check out Sarah's blog , http://auntbeespickles.blogspot.com/ . She makes beautiful cards. I love how this card turned out. He's such a cute buckskin pony, but I wish I had some black floss on hand. The mane and tail was hand stitched with embroidery floss. Then taped on the back to hold it in place when I cut and seperated the floss with my SU hole punch. We had some company over the weekend, so just got this done. And I still have 7 invitations to complete tonight. Now that the weather is officially gotten warm, we'll be riding horse every chance we get. Yeah!! Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Aww, love that mane and tail! So clever!!!
