Say it Like it Is Saturday-2
Happy Saturday! I don’t know about where you are, but it is glorious here! Once it warms up a bit, I’m opening ALL the windows! LOVE IT!
Here’s my second post “saying it like it is.” I think we all know one of these. No, not a horse, but a horse’s….er….um….rear end. I know a couple people I could send this to, friends (or relatives-ha!) who can be a real…..uh…..rear end…but we can still joke about it. That part’s important. I didn’t make this to be rude. It is meant to be a joke.
Be a Good One
I was digging through the older stamps at Cornish Heritage Farms and came upon this horse. I immediately thought of this sentiment. (And in my strange little mind, I was thinking “What other sentiment would one USE with this image? Really, if you can think of one, please let me know. I’d love to hear other ideas.) Anyway, the horse stamp was on clearance so I’m not even sure it’s still available.
One subtle thing I’ll point out about this card is that I used a Weathered Wood backgrounder on the orange-ish paper. It was one of those plain “patterned papers” from the Basic Grey Archaic paper pad. I just stamped the wood stamp over it using Espresso ink. I love how that looks!
Thanks for stopping by! And thank you, Abraham Lincoln, for such a versatile quote! :) Have a great day!

LOL Love this card! Maybe you should send it to me!!!!
What a great sentiment to pair it up with!!! Beautiful coloring and texture!
I am really enjoying your “Say it like it is” days. This is great! I never would’ve dreamed of that saying but it is perfect.
Your coloring and the colors are all wonderful!
Brilliant! I almost choked on my omelet! I can so think of people to send that to and it is just subtle enough to get away with it! Tee Hee.
BWAhahahahahahahaha!!! LOVE this card - LOVE IT!! Seriously I could prolly make a ton of them to give out to friends and family - they “get” humor like this………..*grin*
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!
I LUFF IT! Must wrack my brain for more sentiments!
This is so funny and a great pairing of image and sentiment!! I love the dimension you’ve given the horse, and wonderful papers!!
This is great! The image is too funny–but what I love most is how you achieved a wonderful southwest feel to your card using that BG paper! Wow–so cool!
FYI - H&M Stamps released a new stamp set named “Lil Behind” which might have a few sentiments you could use with that image.
I’m off to find that BG paper somewhere!
By the way, I love your blog and check it every day!!!
LOVE IT!!!
Great card!!
Heehee — I LOVE this!! What a great way to use that sentiment! Gorgeous colors, too!
This is hilarious!!! Love it!
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!!!!! OMG LMAO!!!!! This is just too funny, it looks awesome M! GREAT job!
Michele, this is hysterical! Love, love, love that stamp and sentiment! Fantastic card, love how you “popped” up his hindquarters, great dimension!
ROTFLMAO!!!!!! Oh my gosh, this is too funny!!! I know a few PITA’s I could send this too. I was just in the CHF clearance section before coming here and the horse is not there anymore but I will find something like it to pair that quote with.
OMGosh, you are hilarious!!! This is fabulous!!
I really DID laugh out loud when I saw this!! I love subtle hilarity! Love this card! This might be a good image for an “I’m sorry” type of card, too.
OHHH I love this!! Great colors!!
This is hysterical! You’re too funny!
aaaaahhhahaaa OMW this is THE BEST!!!!! Thanks for a good laugh!! And love the colors!!!
ROFL! This is AWESOME Michele!!! Love it!
This looks fantastic, Michele, the papers, coloring, sponging, stitching and layout. It is really hilarious! I love this! I wish I could think of what to use as other sayings but nothing comes to mind.
And, I’ve TAGGED you and YOU’RE IT!! Visit my blog to see what to do!

Oh, I could send one to each of my relatives! Just kidding…there’s only a few…LOL!
Great coloring and just a great card!
Oh, how funny! I love it.
What a great card!!! I would definitely send one like this to my sister! Wendy mentioned a stamp set called “Li’l Behind”. Wouldn’t that be a great sentiment for this to be used as a belated birthday card!?
You have to check out some of the cards on my blog. I think we have a taste of the same weird humor.
The other saying I can think up for this saying is “What’s up at your end?” But I like yours better!
