Horsey Christmas Card

This card was a special request for a little girl's horse riding instructor ... I love it when a card turns out just like what you'd imagined in your head!

I've used Brayden from High Hopes - coloured with my new Derwent Inktense watercolour pencils ... which I'm lovin!!
The stitched borders from Paper Smooches were also a recent treat - I imagine they'll be appearing on quite a few of my Christmas cards this year :)
Snowflakes are also Paper Smooches dies.

  20. Lynne, may I ask if you remember what colour is that horse's mane that you used or did you combine some colours to get that? Lovely darker brown. I also love to colour with Inktense pencils, but I usually struggle with darker brown. My saddle brown is almost half the length of the other pencils, it might be obvious without saying that it is my favourite brown... :)
