Today's Way to Use It challenge is celebration the Chinese Year of the Horse .... well, what can I say! I don't have even one horse stamp, so the Cricut had to earn it's keep today.
To make the grass I fringed some green cardstock after edging with peeled paint.

Ah, but aren't you lucky to have the Cricut to come to the rescue so perfectly when you don't have a suitable stamp? The old-fashioned feel to the little boy with his hobby-horse is perfectly suited to the silhouette treatment.
Oh this is adorable! I vote that it counts perfectly for the challenge! ;) I love how you put this together - the black layer really sets everything off so nicely. A striking birthday card! Thanks for sharing!

Sandie, How cute!! I don't think many of us have a horse stamp - I didn't. You did a great job and so did your Cricut. Super scene - very creative, and perfect for this challenge.
