I was fortunate enough to get to work with an image from the new stamp set called Horse Head Stamp Set, you can find it at Priscilla's store. I love, love, love this image! Here is my card for this week, I hope you like it!
Make it fancy or CAS, or anywhere in between!
Being from Texas originally I gave the card a western flavor. I have a mare that looks very much like this image and used to show her in AQHA shows (American Quarter Horse Association). The saddle I used for showing had silver trim on it as did her bridle. She was gorgeous all spit shined and tacked up to the hilt! We only showed for about 3 1/2 or 4 years, it became just too expensive, but those are memories I thought about while making this card!!
Here is the inside, love this quote and it sort of expresses the way I feel when I ride. Horses are such elegant animals, their beauty is breathtaking!Here is the envelope above and one more shot of the card below. Please join us this week, this is such a wonderful sketch to work with! Don't forget to visit Priscilla's store for the latest images, you will be delighted at what you find!

What a pretty card! TFS =)
This is beautiful, Donna. Our neighbor across the street just brought his horse and put in a fenced area to graze and it looks just like yours. My husband and his family used to have horses but that has been quite a few years. We still own the barn and land here in town but no horses. Love your extra elements which give it such a beautiful touch. Tfs your card and story.
This is a beautiful image and you've colored it perfectly. Your design is gorgeous and I love the details you've added. Beautiful!
