Horse & Sleigh
July 07, 2023
Ready for another Festive Friday challenge? What is the Festive Friday challenge? The Festive Friday challenge is a bi-weekly challenge that is inspired by a holiday/festivity. An Inspo list of 10 items is created using the festivity as its inspiration. To play in the challenge you need to use 3 items from the Inspo list on your project and enter it in the Festive Friday gallery. We love seeing what you choose from the Inspo list and look forward to seeing what you create.
This was a tough list for me. I finally decided on Copper, Vellum, and Animals.
If you are wondering this stamp set and dies, Horse and Sleigh are from a new Online Exclusive release. This release went live on July 6th. The beautiful DSP is called One Horse Open Sleigh. If you love scenery then be sure to check out this pack of paper. It is SO good.
The card base is Misty Moonlight, 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" scored at 4-1/4". The DSP was cut 4" x 5-1/4" and the vellum 3-7/8" x 5-1/8". I like how the vellum added some mistiness to the scene. It made it look like it was foggy or snowing out. The horse and sleigh were stamped using Misty Moonlight ink and colored with Stampin' Blends in Real Red, Misty Moonlight, Granny Apple Green, and Smoky Slate. The sentiment is also from the Horse & Sleigh stamp set and heat embossed with White embossing powder.
When I made my card I thought that it was animal not animals. So I am counting the people riding in the sleigh as animals in addition to the horse. After all we are the human animal.
Are you wondering where's the copper? The snowflakes are copper! This is another Online Exclusive called Adhesive-Backed Snowflake Assortment. The snowflakes come in white, gold and copper. There are 3 different sizes and 90 snowflakes in all.
I used a strip of the DSP for the inside of the card along with 2 more copper snowflakes. These are the 2 larger sizes of the snowflake.
Thank you for stopping by and be sure to check out what the rest of the Festive Friday Design team created.
Sharon, what a wonderful way to showcase this new set. Your little scene is winter perfection.

Sharon, I love your choice of colors. The soft grey perfectly echoes a cold winter's evening and the touch of red pops against it.
