This is a birthday card for my friend Linda who is totally obsessed with horses. (And luckily, has a good sense of humor! :-D) It's for Color Challenge 155, Black, White, and River Rock. I didn't have River Rock, so subbed. Sahara Sand.
The card base is stamped with Fine Lace BG in Brilliance Graphite Black. The CB'ed layer is the swirl pattern, turned upside down, and swiped with black ink. I thought the back of the pattern looked more Asian. I stampd the horse in Versamark and embossed with Detail Black EP. I died the grosgrain ribbon black, used a HH ribbon slider, and folded 3 pieces on the right side of the card. The vertical stripes are slivers of CS. The sentiment, *It's your Birthday! So get off your HARSE and Celebrate!*, (which I made up!) is computer generated. Finally, I've given it some it some *bling* with tiny white brads and Swarovski crystals.
I hope you like it, and thanks for looking!
