I made this for today's Way to Use It challenge- distressing. This was a super fun card to make and came together really fast. I colored this gorgeous Mark's Finest Papers horse with copics and made a stampede of black horses along the bottom, I originally made the herd in rust, but liked the black better. I really wanted to add elegance to a rustic cowgirl card so I added lace and a spray of roses. I just discovered these rolled rose dies from Quilled Creations and love them.

Cool, I love the feminine touches of the roses and binding with what I'd initially think of as a "guy" image. No reason why I should - my sister and my nieces are all horsey!
