This birthday card is for my very special friend Jenny (Creative Cards) who celebrates her birthday Oct. 14- and is coming today to have lunch with me! Jenny has three horses, (and the best stamp store evah!)
The main image is special to me also, as it was a gift to me from Shirley (Wannabcre8tive). Shirley, Jenny and I have had some wonderful times together. The flowers are a gift to me also, from my sweet buddy Giggles (MarilynPrestonn). Thanks so much Giggles, these were the perfect addition for Jenny's card.
The cowgirl was done in black EP on watercolor paper pieced, and rests on a nestibilities frame. The 'Enjoy the Ride' stamp is from A Muse and purchased at Cat's Meow on a shopping trip with Shirley. It was stamped on a rusted brass plate using white opaque Stazon.
Thanks for looking! Happy Birthday Jenny! LYMI-IRL!!!

If I was a bit younger and a lot skinner, this would have looked like me today. I tried to get on my neighbor's new horse this morning but I just couldn't get enough leg strength (I have got to start doing more leg exercises) so I just pet her a bunch. This card is wonderful and it is so full of fun things (gifts and cool stamps). LYS!

Fabulous card. Your outside the box design is fabulous and the background you've used is awesome. Super flowers and the fence adds a lot to this one too.

What a special birthday card for Jenny. I know she loved it. Your coloring is perfecto, I like the fence and how you put those flowers with it to make a nice scene. I see you used Tate's favorite color, too.
