Horses - in Black and White - and a birthday tag


These challenges seemed like just the right combination to use this great Inkadinkado image - Special Moment.
I inked the Distressed Stripes (CB) folder, but I am not sure why it did not ink evenly - I just thought I would go with that look!  I have had the DP for a long time, and the other black strips are from as). Black brads complete the look. pack of hand made paper (Costco).  I need to work on piercing - even though I am using a kit (Ecstasy Craft

This does not show at all well on the scan.  I have some great shimmery scraps - at 2" wide, I cannot use them for much, but for tags, they are great - except you cannot see the lovely shimmer.  The balloon is from one of the first SU sets I bought  (Fine Print), and rarely used  (the print is pretty tiny!).  I tried to make shrubs out of my line of hearts - Hampton Art.  Added some random doodles, and a tie of Santa Fe twine.  The top is cut with edging scissors.

Great project, Dorothy! I have that SU balloon stamp -- it is an oldie, but a goodie! Thanks for playing.
