Day 17 of 30 Day Color Challenge

I just couldn't get to my coloring yesterday. This is a Unity Stamp by Phyllis Harris called "Felt With The Heart". Can you tell I have A LOT of these stamps! I have bought all the horse ones and several others. When I stamped this image it was on white paper. The contrast was to harsh in my opinion so to tie it in with the papers I chose for this card I used Tim Holtz Distressed Ink "Antique Linen" and applied with a blending tool. I colored the image with my Copic Markers.

This card will be going to a friend .

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look!

Have a good one.

New Bike

Doyle bought me a new bike for Christmas. He got my tripometer, headlight and water holder put on it so I took it for the first time down the trail.







I had pretty good momentum on the paved trail in town.


















I did the same amount on Tuesday that I did on Monday but I must admit it wasn't as easy and it took me longer but I got it done!









I'm not usually out and about early enough to see the sunrise but I was on Tuesday as I met the farrier. It was breath-taking!


Have a good one!

Intriguing Sunset

Saturday March 14th produced an interesting sunset. It had been cloudy most of the day but before sunset the clouds began to move leaving the horizon exposed for the sun to shine through. The colored it produced on those clouds after the sun went down was so beautiful.






Fancy and Diamond sharing hay.













Have a good one!

Day 15 of 30 Day Color Challenge

I barely made it today! This card is very simple. Just some color cardstock with image and sentiment but I still like how it turned out.

The image is a Unity Stamp by Phyllis Harris called "Let Love Fly".

I colored this image with my Copic markers.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look!

Sunset Worth the Drive

Friday the 13th was not a superstitious day for me. In fact it was a pretty good day. I decided to let the horses graze outside the pasture. I had Clyde in a little area penned off while I held ropes for the other two.

When we first brought Fancy home Clyde acted like he was her best friend and she stuck to him like glue. As time has passed it appears that now Diamond is Fancy's best friend and she hangs out with him!

After I fed I headed home. It looked like the sky was shaping up for a beautiful sunset. There really isn't a place at my house for a good view so I decided to drive to find one. I am so glad I did!























Have a good one!

Beautiful Day for All Kinds of Riding

It was a beautiful Day Monday (March 16th) to do all the outdoor things I love to do! I started with getting on my bike again! I hadn't ridden it in 3 months! I wasn't sure how far I would be able to go. I completed 9 miles! Just 3 miles shy of what I was doing before I quit for winter! I was pleasantly surprised and very pleased! I started riding my bike in June. When I quit in December I had ridden a total of 738 miles! I am ready to get back to the daily habit!

After riding my bike I went and rode horses.












I rode Fancy first.
















The temp topped out at 80 degrees today. The horses still have some winter hair and they worked up a lather!

















Next I rode Diamond.


















It was a great day for me!


Have a good one!

Day 14 of 30 Day Color Challenge

Here we are at day 14 of the 30 Day Color Challenge. I am using another Unity Stamp by Phyllis Harris called "Every Breath".  I colored the image with my Copic Markers. The sentiment is part of the stamp set. The background paper is scrap from an old Fancy Pants birthday collection.

Thanks for taking a look!

Have a good one!
