Born to be Wild!

LOL - I saw this digi at Gingerloft and just loved it! 

Again, it reminded me of our youth on the farm - all three of us riding the fat pony until she got so sick of us she would move over to the old crab apple tree and take us under the lowest branch and just brush us all off! This despite whoever had the reins sawing and pulling to stop it happening - but it was always inevitable!

I also remember my younger brother being a cowboy and riding her across the wet, steep paddock - yes, she fell and he fell, and I thought he was dead but he wasn't! Both were OK in the end but the memory is still there of the Dr visiting the house - unheard of! I remember he was a bit bruised for a while and had a sore leg but I think he landed under her and because the ground was so wet, sunk into the turf! Happy days, eh!!

The challenge this fortnight is 


We all have trouble making male cards (or nearly all of us) and need to add a few more to our stash.  Here is your chance! Remember, you get three digi's of your choice from Gingerloft if your card is chosen - random choice - and you could be featured as a top three!

I will enter this in the following challenges:
Crafting by Design:  animals
Inky Impressions: for a child
