Bareback

Happy Wednesday!
It's been a crazy week. I think my families shedule went on overdrive.
And I think my laundry was trying to take on Mt. Everest.
My Dad's birthday is Sunday and since his favorite things are horses, I dug out my Stampin Up horse stamps, Bareback. I haven't inked this up in a while.


I stamped the horses on Lost & Found Two Sunshine DP by MME with chocolate chip classic ink and then watercolored the sky and grass with baja breeze and old olive. I used vintage photo distress ink around the edges and distressed them a little. The swirls were stamped with distress ink using a SU Bronc Buster stamp. Which I stamped off first. I used a vintage brad from SU.


I used the Fishtail Banner die-namic and Stacking Stars die-namic for my tag. The happy sentiment is from the stamp set in the Strip Banner die-namic set and the birthday is from the Loads of Love Accessories stamp set by SU.  I paper pierced the tag and distressed it and added a brad to the star and  a little stickle glitter to one side. The twill tape also has been distressed. The chocolate chip panel was embossed with the provocraft embossing folder.
