High Hopes Horse

I was stamping some images for a swap and I messed up this image. Normally the image shows the whole horse. Well, I don't have him mounted yet and I was just using the plain rubber...putting it down onto paper and pressing on the back. Sometimes this isn't the easiest thing to do because as you are putting it down and picking it up you can make it smudge. This guys hooves got smudged. SO I couldn't send him in the swap. But I wasn't going to throw him away either! Instead I colored most of him and then trimmed and cut out a portion of the image. You'd never know I messed up the image because I chopped off the part that was damaged.



Main Image: Kenny from High Hopes Rubber Stamps
Background Stamp: Stampin Up
Cardstock: Stampin Up
Ink: Marvy Black and Stampin Up

This is one of the cards I made with my friend this weekend. She's a SU consultant so I was using most of her supplies.

Enjoy!

This image is colored beautifully, and I love the bg, too. I don't blame you one bit. He is too cute to just throw away because of a little smudge. :) Kel
