Another Easel card

Thank you for all those who have sent me well wishes and healing cyber hugs. I am feeling a bit better today and have now got the right balance of painkillers which are keeping me comfortable.

My daughter Safiyyah will be 7 on the 27th June and is absolutely horse MAD!! She goes riding every week at a local stables and would love nothing more than her own pony - the chances of her getting one are not likely!!! This Mo Manning image of Shire with her horse is just perfect for my daughter as the little girl in the image looks just like her - pony tail and all!

I coloured the image in using Promarkers. Papers are Basic Grey Lemonade and I dry embossed some Core-dinations cardstock. Yellow ribbon and blue lace from stash. Paper flower was made using a punch and the large blue netting flower is Prima - Madrigal Blossom in Nocturne which are available at Creative Craft World.





I am entering the card into the following challenges:
Digital Tuesday - Easel card
Mo's Digital Pencil - Dry embossing
The Pixie Cottage - Sketch
Cooking it up with Katie - Recipe ingredients = Use some Green
Add some Embossing and include a little ribbon!
Bunny Zoe's Crafts - Nice and girly
Mark's Finest Papers - Embossing
