Carousel Horse Pop Up


This is one stamp I have owned for two years now, and becouse I used to so wary of stamping that I hadnt used it, I was sorting out my crafty drawers and found it, so thought why not have a use of it, I stamped and embossed, then coloured with a mixture of water colours and sakura pens, wanted to do something different from a flat square or oblong so made a pop up card, the pop up is in a leather look browny red card, and decorated with gold and purple peel offs,
This is being entered for the Four legged challenge over at Rainbow ladys blog,

Congratulations to my son and his footy team, and a card for a challenge or two ;)



First of all I want to say CONGRATULATIONS to my son Hayden and all in his football team the CHELMSFORD CITY WHITES (under 11's) as they won their cup final today 2 - 0.

He wont let me put a photo of him on with his trophy........ yet,

Above is the card I have made this afternoon after warming up spending most of the day in that cold wind watching him play footy,

It follows the sketch on http://trulyscrumptiouschallenges.blogspot.com

and the requirements of shapes on http://pennybfriendssaturdaychallenge.blogspot.com

and lastly the FACE challenge on http://lotstodocallenges.blogspot.com

I used the Pennyblack stamp of the 3 darling mice with the scrummy cupcake, stamped and coloured in watercolours,

The inside of this card has a plain blue insert to match the background card.
