I'd like to share the card I made for my friend and co rainbow leader Alice today. She's going to be 19 next Monday and is currently having a year off before university. I shall miss her when she goes. She has 'hired' a horse for this year and so I thought I would use the recent horsey image from Sheena Douglass to make her card - I've teamed it up with a background I made to do my wee folk ATB.
I've coloured the image using spectrum noir pencils and cut the image using an X cut die. The background was made using distress paints - cracked pistachio, abandoned coral and mermaid lagoon.
I would like to enter this into the facebook spectrum noir challenge. Thanks for telling me about that one Karen - will use it for the other one too! Ta lovely!!!
Have a good rest of your day!

Wonderful card Rachel and I am sure she will love it. Yes I have been out in the garden again but trying to keep up with the weeds. Maybe the cooler weather will keep them at bay for me for a bit!!!

A gorgeous card Rachel, I love the colourful background and I'm sure that Alice is going to love it. This beautiful weather has been so good early on in the year. It's a shame that it will be over soon.
