Grazing Horses


Here's a card I made for the Mod Squad challenge which this week is a masculine birthday. I've had this image in my digi folder for a long time, but it wasn't named, so if anyone knows who drew it, please leave a comment and I'll edit this post to give the proper credit. I printed it on a piece of vanilla cardstock and added some stamped grass in 3 shades of green The polka dot dsp is a long-retired piece of SU! Apple Cider dsp (yes, I hoarded it all these years! LOL) I added 3 black brads, some black twine and a MS punched arch lattice border with a SNSS birthday sentiment.

Thanks for spending a few minutes with me today and I wish you a wonderful weekend!

Love the image but don't think I've seen it before so I can't help you out. The grass for grazing is just perfect, Carol. It's a beautiful card.

Pretty horses on this nice digi, and love the added grass. As usual, your dps added to the image to make such a pretty card. The polka dot dp was very nice with the cream background of your digi. TFS & Hugs

Great masculine card. I think horses are excellent for manly cards, which is odd when you think of how little girls all love horses too.
