I was hoping to make it to the teaparty on time - but I just couldn't find the time (energy either). This week's party involved bringing a horse or other fast animal to the Kentucky Derby (or a hat if you have nothing fast to ride). All my horse images are western so I couldn't bring a race horse - but this here horse is fast! He is strong from rustling cattle and all (our cattle have learned to jump our fence - we need to fatten those girls up).
Hope there is some tea or mint juleps left for me!

How come nobody done tol' me you came to the party? I reckon late is better than nevah, eh? Your image just cracks me up, Nancy. Doesn't look like he's real enthused about racing. Your coloring is wonderful. Fab card!

Looks like your horsie is ascared of the law! hehe This is so cool I love your image here. Perfect job on the coloring. Love that distress and paper pierced edge. Fabulous card. I know there is some tea left over, not too sure about the mint juleps. Just what the heck IS a mint julep anyway? Love your card. TFS :0)

Girl, were you using a metal detector when you found that sheriff's badge? I want one. LOL You just never know what you can use or will need on a card...especially, for the Tea Party. Love your horse, though he looks a bit frightened. Did he see some of the teapotters?
