Here is a horse from Smelly Ellie's herd stopping in a flower strewn meadow to pick her some flowers to cheer her up after Ed leaving the shed. This is going to Mutnik's daughter Jessica to brighten her recovery.
I used SC13. I only have two horse stamps, about the same size. I went through the sketches and found this one and I knew just what DCWV stack I wanted to use (yes, I am a stack a holic). Then I found a page of pockets & I was delighted. Since the pocket ended up being a bit larger than the sketch, I used a 6 1/2" x 5" card from a value pack.
I made a patchwork BG, so this also qualifies for yesterday's TLC329. Plus I pierced holes for my faux stitching, so this also meets WT326 from last week! Wow, I think that is the most challenges I ever got in one card!

This is just the cutest card! Love that horse and that denim pocket could have come right off my jeans. I'm sure Jessica and her family and visitors will really enjoy it. It's one you can look at again and again.

What a wonderful Western look with all that gingham, paisley and denim. The pocket is a cool addition, and your little horse (and flowers!) is so happy and cheerful looking.
