Horsin' Around Part 2

 Happy Thursday- This post is part 2.  Part 1 was yesterday's post.  If you missed it then-check out yesterday's post.
  •  For this card -I did the same thing with the hat as the girl card. Without embossing hat...
  • For the mane on the horse I simply used some brown(Capacinno) twine and glued to the horse. (does not have to be a specific length-I used 1/2" pieces.  I then gave the horse a haircut.
  • For the stick on the horse-I did the same as the girl.
  • I embossed the ivory colored cardstock with Diamond in the Rough embossing folder and my cuttlebug. 
  • And the back brown piece was also punched using the same Stampin Up punch.
  • For the jute I honestly just made a design and glued it down.  I used Zip Dry for most of these items.
  • After jute was down I added the horse shoes also cut from the same cart. These are cut at 1 1/2 inches.
The sentiment was stamped and glued on a leftover piece of background paper and I added the copper brads.  Again this stamp is one of My Pink Stampers.


Don't forget to come back tomorrow for an awesome blog hop with some super talented ladies.

  9. Thanks for doing a boy version since so many cards and layouts are girly oriented these days...so many pretty things you can add for a girl but not so much for boys!
