Good Morning everyone
I realised i haven't uploaded my brothers birthday card from September, i made a stair step card with a horse theme as he is now collecting horses (real ones)
I used 12x12 papers from paper pads from the works as they are the ideal weight for folding. I went with a wood panel for the inside to give a stable feel and a green for the front for a meadow feel. The front panel is matted onto brown and gold mirror card. After matting the green paper onto the brown card I die cut memory box circle from the middle and matted onto the gold mirror to give the effect of the sun. Stamped sentiment die cut into a speech bubble to finish after gluing the image into place with glue gel.
I used digital images from HettyClare on Etsy - images called 'friends forever' & 'say cheese' . Printed out at different sizes and watercoloured with inktense pencils and then cut out.
and the inside. I die cut the alphas from brown cardstock, matted onto circles die cut from white, gold mirror and brown card and adhered them to the steps. I added a die cut white oval to write the greeting on. Then arranged the horses - I wanted some facing slightly different angles so i cut their heads off (promise it didn't hurt them) and glued back on at a different angle, also this digi stamp came with a girl rider which i didn't want so I also cut her away to leave just the horse.
showing from a different angle. Rob is really getting into training up work horses and took on a mother & foal in the autumn.....his old donkey is still the boss of the stables though😁
Thank you for stopping by once again. Enjoy the rest of your week. Hugs Emmax
