This card is for Mutnik, Queen for the Day. And, how she deserves this honor! Mutnik is such a wonderful artist. I decided to CASE this card: WT258 - ...smoochie, smoochie.... by Mutnik at Splitcoaststampers It is a card she did for Miss M on her .... uh..20th anniviersary with Chimay Blue/Tahiti Petey/cat/man/dog.
I just wanted to keep the smoochie, smoochie part of the card and changed her ribbon to hemp and moved it to the bottom. Used a deckle nestie.
I hope you like my way of honoring you and your abilities, Cathy. Of course, I could never do what you do. Have a fun time being Queen.

Oh Brenda, your smooching horsies are just too sweet, just like you. Your coloring is top notch. I love that deckle nestie you used, way cool. Love the hemp and those really neat copper brad things. These horses remind me of my way younger days, before I knew about boys. hehe...My parents would take me to the stables, where for $35 you could rent a horse for the month. They fed it, stabled it, and provided all the tackle. All you had to do was ride it and have fun. Which I did until I fell out of the barn, landed on my head and broke my arm. Oh well, at least it was at the end of the summer. Had a blast tho. Thanks for the memories and for being apart of my fun day. WOW! TFS :0)

Brenda!!! OMGosh- you know I am lovin' this! Wow- your smoochin' horses look like an oil painting! I love the effect you got, just beautiful! After reading Cathy's comment, don't ya wish a fall outta the barn could give us a 'Mutniky' creative process? Lol- your card is a wonderful tribute to Nutmeg. TSMFS Hugs....
