Delightful Animals

Happy weekend crafty friends. Thank you for stopping by today. We've a new challenge at Allsorts and Lolo has chosen DELIGHTFUL ANIMALS as her optional theme (Anything Goes is also welcome).

I don't need to tell my long suffering followers that I am an animal lover, especially if they bark or neigh. Dogs have featured lots of late so I have a chestnut horse to share today. 


 I made this card using a Hetty Clare image (pony flowers) coloured with Promarkers to match Symba (whose owner Jane was the recipient of this card for her 60th). The papers are from a First Edition pad that was suitably chestnut coloured!! I used a Technique Tuesday stamp and added a little tag to suggest a shape of a rosette.

Here he is is in real life!!



Prizes (2) from AALL and Create



I hope you have something nice planned for the weekend. It's a Bank Holiday here in the UK which means I get an extra day off and the weather actually looks quite promising.

See you on Monday with a bit of festive cuteness xx

I absolutely LOVE these Thelwell images and had wondered where you got them from! I see the Etsy seller has 50% off at the moment - only a shame I don't use digi images!

Great card and love the suggestion of a rosette. xxx
