Magical Monday - Painted Pony

It's another Magical Monday at There's Magic in the Air!
Before I go any further, though, I have to share my exciting news with you!
Leigh Ann, DT member at TMITA is going through a very sudden 'move'. Due to this move, she has had to step down from her DT position. We are all sad to see her go, wish her the best,
and hopefully, she'll get to return in the future.
In the meantime, as you know, I've been serving as Guest Designer for December, and Nina has asked me to step in for the remainder of Leigh Ann's DT time. So....I cannot say that I will be filling Leigh Ann's shoes, as that's impossible, but I will be on the Design Team at TMITA through March! I am SO excited! Hope to see all of you participating in the weekly challenges!!! Pinch me!
Now...back to business...
This week's free image at There's Magic in the Air is Nina's adorable "Painted Pony".

It's Patti's week to issue the challenge, and she's challenged us all to use these colors on our cards/projects.

You do not have to use Stampin' Up colors - just come as close as you can!

* * *

I didn't have these colors, so I just used my Tombow Markers and matched up as well as I could. These colors are pretty easy to substitute!

I hope you like this darling image as much as I did! It was SO much fun to color!

* * *

Run over to TMITA, get YOUR free image, and enter it into the Magical Monday contest! You could be the next winner!

I hope you like it! It's going in the mail to one of you - watch your mailboxes!!!

Have a great day! Happy Stamping!

Patti J.
