This is made from a recycled card, couldn't toss this one! I had some old slab DP-looks like rocks, and used that with chocolate CS. The image in the spellbinders shape is from the inside of the card. I just love this image of these workhorses with the farmer toiling in the field. I finished with a small greeting and a sticker. I don't have a pet, this is my card for the challenge. TFL

OMGosh this is fantastic. I have a friend that has a picture of her husband plowing with his horses that this just so reminded me of. Great job on this.

Great recycling of an old card - I need to do more of that as I hate discarding beautiful commercial cards. And I'm amazed how well your DP colour-coordinated with the image.

Very nice, my former boss actually had a set of these horses and plowed the field just like this...I think he had to much time on his hands, the tractor was sitting there doing nothing!
Great recycle card, the paper is perfect for the scene and the sitcker is a nice accent.

My grandfather owned two workhorses, Dot and Mable, that look like the ones on your card. At the end of the day he would put us grandkids upon their backs and lead them to pasture about a half mile away. None of us ever complained of the walk back. Thanks for the trip down memory lane your lovely card evoked.
