Do you recognize the Stitched Stockings SU! stamp set and the Stocking Builder Punch? What a great card idea to welcome a baby or to give as a birthday card to a child. I don't know if you tell from the picture, but the horse's mane is fringed. To make that, lay the horse stocking on a piece of chocolate chip card stock and cut out the mane. Then make lots of short cuts with the Paper Snips.
My kids made stick horses when they were young with those large size men's socks and old broom handles so this card brings back lots of memories. Do you have memories of doing that? I don't know if kids still make these or not but it certainly fits with a retro theme! Actually, wouldn't it be fun to give this card to a child with the gift being a stick horse?
One of my friends is giving a baby shower and she is using this card as the invitation (with a different word stamp, of course) and, for the decorations she is doing the same thing with the Holiday Stocking Bigz L Die with the Big Shot. Won't they make great horses too? She is going to string them as a banner over the table. I love how you can mix and match stamp sets and ideas and turn them into whatever you want them to be!
