The Old Gray Mare



The Old Gray Mare she ain't what she used to be but she can still kick up her heels and say it's going to be a great day! Sorry, my brain went to song lyrics instead of concentrating on one of Squigglefly's new fun images The Old Gray Mare from Lynne Stansbery! Each Monday Squigglefly holds a new challenge and the design teams take turns providing inspiration. This week's challenge is from Holley's Hobbyists and it's a recipe challenge to use ribbon or lace; brads or eyelets; and a die cut. The die can be store bought, the main die cut around your images, freestyle or cut with your own machines and/or punches to count as your die cut. I just realized that the challenge directions said, "brads or eyelets" I swear I saw buttons so you pretend you see brads!
