Happy Weekend everyone!! I have a Christmas card to share with you today and shock, horror, it doesn't have any stamping. I was inspired by several of the current challenges in blogland and thought I'd have a go. A much better photograph today. I took it outside yesterday afternoon (in the usual spot!!) when it was quite bright. I did have company though while trying to take it!!
"Her Ladyship" aka Surprise looking over the garden gate and "asking" (ever so politely mind you) to go into her nice cosy stable. I did tell Hubby that we were asking for trouble when we extended her paddock around the house!! Anyway here's my card...
I arranged and cut several different snowflake dies into snow white centura pearl. Then cut the same shapes from white glitter card and stuck them back in, like a jigsaw. Easy peasy!!
I am entering these challenges today (thanks for the inspiration)

Have a lovely Saturday and see you soon xx
PS. The rug was clean when she went out yesterday morning, the little bu**er tends to find the muddiest patches in the field and rolls like her life depends on it!! I'm sure it's because she thinks I like grooming her!!
Fabulous card Sarah - so elegant and stylish - love the design - such a great idea.
ReplyDeleteAnd beautiful photo of your gorgeous horse - thanks for sharing.

Gorgeous Sarah! Such a great idea, and oh so very effective. And what a gorgeous creature "her Ladyship" is!
ReplyDeleteAs for my recent DTs... I applied to a few, but wasn't expecting them all to invite me to join! lol. So I've gone from 0 to 4 in the space of a couple of weeks. But it's only actually 2 cards/items a week, which isn't a lot, and I'm already ahead on my commitments for most of them, lol. One of the "benifits" of not being able to work, I guess...
Still have 2 applications out there. Fingers crossed! :-) x
What a great style and what a super card Sarah, love it! Hope Surprise get's in to his stable before the fireworks start, Jx
ReplyDeleteOh wow Sarah I love this idea, I may have to 'borrow' it :P Surprise is absolutely adorable and when I showed my hubby straight away he said she's been rolling and having fun LOL lots of huggles Sue xxxxxxxx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card - love the idea of using them in this way!! Fabulous!
ReplyDeleteAn amazing design, Sarah. Absolutely beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWhat a stunner Surprise is. She has a certain devilish glint in her eye though I think! xx
Your card is stunning Sarah, Surprise is gorgeous they do love to roll in the mud.
