Pony Smiles

  I love horses and ponies so when I saw the "My Pony" stamp in the "Thoughts of Spring With Friends" release  I knew I wanted to colour it! I had a horse for a number of years and when I got really stressed out or to "serious" he would do something - like pull a coffee cup out of the garbage and stand there with it in his mouth and bob his head up and down - to make me laugh. 

He also loved little people and was the perfect horse to introduce my nieces and nephews to. They loved having a ride on him and would smile as big as the little girl on this stamp. So many great memories! 

I stamped on alcohol marker friendly paper, coloured with Copic markers and cut the stamp out with a stitched rectangle die. The clouds were added by using a dauber around the edge of a cloud die cut. 

I combined patterned paper from Craft Consortium and Honey Bee stamps to create the layers on the card, added them to card stock and glued them down. Some cotton lace ribbon was added before gluing down the layers. The sentiment was stamped and cut out with a circle die and matching card stock. A bow, wooden horse shoe and enamel dots finish off my card.
