Pretty Ponies


I'm making more horse cards - this time for my sister's dressage trainer, who was the recipient of one of the sets of cards I made for my sister to give to her friends at Christmas. For many of them, I'm reusing old designs, with small changes, but I'm really happy with this one, which I have not done before. It's so simple to do, but it's quite pretty, I think!

I stamped the Starving Artistamps horse 3 times in versarmark and embossed in clear. Then I sponged a line of each colour of my Flannel Kaleidecolor inkpad to create the background.

I hope she likes rainbows as much as I do!

  1. Wow! I love this stamp and the rainbow colours. Horses are so popular in my area, for mustering cattle, pony club, breeders etc.. Fabulous card :)

  15. Love how you didn't do a traditionally colored rainbow ... you always make things just a little off to be completely interesting and not predictable. Love. it.

  16. Your sister's horsey people will be lovin' these cards. I LOVE the colors that you used. The horses likely have a bit of sheen from the Versamark, that I'm sure looks even more spectacular in real life.
