Did you ever want your very own pony?

I know I did!  And I saved every penny when I was a young girl so I could take the long bus ride to the nearest stables to ride a pony!  But alas, I never did get to own my very own but I do get to see them nearly every day now I live in the countryside.  *Sigh* - such beautiful creatures!

But, hey, you haven't come here to hear me reminisce!  But the card I am sharing today brings back those memories and I just adore the new Annabel Saddle Up stamp now available in the Lili of the Valley store.



Isn't she pretty?  And I also used the pretty papers from the Pastel Dreams pad and the sentiment is from the Scrolls Sentiments set.  I used Lawn Fawn's Stitched Scalloped Border and the that's a CC Designs Cutter grass border die.

Thank you for visiting me today - have a great day and I will see you again soon!

  4. Loving this little lady and the papers and colours you've chosen.. and of course, the perfect sentiment too! I never did want a pony... we had a horse (not ours) in the field behind where I grew up called Mandy.. she was a beautiful chestnut mare - but I never did want to ride her... I was happy just feeding her grass! (OK NOW who's reminiscing!)
