A touch of Dr. Green

Older country and or equestrian folks will know of Dr. Green.   Horses are not intended to spend their lives in stables only being taken out for exercise.  Well in times past, well over 100 years ago, horses were seen of tools to be used and then handed back to the grooms.   From time to time these wise guardians of horses knowing how important having time to themselves in a field of grass with other horses.   Such opportunities gave the horses a boost, hence the term Dr. Green.


Lots of Green themes around at the moment and green is after all my favourite colour!

Brand new Paper Artsy stamp of blossom, stamped in green Brilliance onto green pearlised card.  Not sure if the ink would stay fast so it was heat set.   Because I'd used Brilliance inks I choose to use my felt pens to colour it.  As is quite usual with me no sentiment has been added, that will come when I want to use it.  What I did was to added a green fabric flower and a strip of green felt rib rak.
