Sun at last!

Well at last the sun has got his hat on! Doesn't it make you feel good to feel the warmth of the sun on your face?

I spent the morning at the yard today grooming my mare, Fever, and then we had a short ride before some friends came to have a little go on her.

Fever is such a sweet mare, despite all her friends being out in the big summer field for the first time today, she behaved impecably. They are VERY novice riders and she carried them like they were precious cargo :-)

The weather must have known what the challenge is over at MAWTT this week! It is SUMMER SUNSHINE!

So this is my entry:



I really enjoyed making this card although gluing the string to the tail of the kite was a little fiddly lol.

I will also enter it into the following challenges:

Sweet Stampin - 4 Legged Friends! Finishes Saturday 12th May

Papertake Weekly - Anything goes! Finishes Tuesday 8th May

However fiddly it was, the kite string looks great & I love the pop of orange there, really brings the sunshine feel in. Thanks so much for playing along with Sweet Stampin x
