Card using Mark's Finest Papers and Stamps

Hi Everyone!

I have been hiding in my craft room a lot lately catching up on projects and organizing my paper and embellishments to get ready for fall.  I wanted to share with you a really neat website that sells papers and stamps sets along with lots of other goodies.  It is called Mark's Finest Papers and Stamps.

Here is a project I recently made using the Wild Horses stamp set:

The only papers I used was black cardstock and kraft cardstock.  The card is an A2 size card made using the black cardstock.  I cut some kraft cardstock and using the horses border made the background.  The large galloping horse is also on the same stamp set and I stamped it on kraft cardstock, inked around the edges, and popped it up with foam tape.  The smaller solid black horse and sentiment "Happy Birthday" is also on the stamp set.  I really like the way this card came together.  It would make a great masculine birthday card.

Here is a picture of this stamp set.

You can check out their products HERE.

Hope you have a great day!

This card is so "blinged up" that I had to angle the camera to eliminate as much glare as possible.
