Happy Birthday - a Joy Fold Card

One of my down line has a birthday today.  Since she is crazy about horses, and owns her own horse, I made a card featuring horses it.

I used the Joy Fold to make this special card, but instead of the smaller fold being held down by the focal image, it is held down by the birthday sentiment. In the last picture below you can see my finger holding the card back so it doesn't slip under the sentiment.



The image of the horses and fence are from Frog's Whisker's Ink The horses were coloured with copic markers, the fence stamped and coloured with Soft Suede ink
The grass around the fence posts were stamped with Always Artichoke using the grass stamp from High Tide.  The water stamp from High Tide was also used to stamp the ground around the horses.

I made the clouds in the sky using scallop circles and a Marina Mist ink. The birds are from "Wherever You Go"

Sentiment is from Vertical Greetings.

The greetings inside is also from Frog's Whiskers.  The horse in the corner is from a retired SU stamp.

Stamps:  High Tide, Wherever You Go, Vertical Greetings, Pals (Frog's Whiskers)
Inks:  Black Memento, Copic Markers, Marina Mist, Soft Suede, Basic Gray, Always Artichoke
