This is a card I made for the teapot challenge for today. It's destination is to go to Mutnik's daughter, Jessica. Jessica was seriously injured in a fall while riding her horse. My prayers and thoughts are with her and her family as she recovers.
I wasn't sure where to go with the challenge, so I turned to the Color Challenge 327 as added inspiration while creating this card.
I used a horse die cut from Archivers. I used the negative cut out of a dark brown and layered in on an ivory. I then matted it on a dark olive green. I rounded the outside corners and added 3 SU hodgepodge brads.
Again, my thoughts and prayers are with Jessica for a speedy recovery!!

Bev, this is so clever! I love that you used the negative of the die cut - I did a black silhouette and you did white! This is CAS perfection - beautiful!

This is a lovely horse on the negative!! I can see this die being a must have after this Tea Party, used on the positive or negative, this can be very versatile! You've showcased this horse beautifully!!
