Hope no one is disappointed that I didn't do another Funny Friday today. I just really wasn't in the mood - but hopefully will be next Friday!
I used this scarecrow stamp by Hero Arts and think it's just perfect for Fall. He's colored with Copics. The patterned paper I used is from Paper Studio and then added the Chocolate Chip and Old Olive from SU. I used some brown embroidery floss and orange and white Baker's twine to wrap around the base and then added the button. The left corner........I did some cross stitching with the brown floss but wish I had done them further apart so you could tell what they were. But, done is done.......so that's it.
I'll enter this in the following challenges: The Stamping Boutique Challenge (Changes of the Season), the challenge at ICopic (All About Fall), Paper Play Challenges (Autumnal Colors), Dolce Stamps and Cards (Autumn), and Stamping with the Dragon (Fall).
Thanks for stopping by...............

I LOVE this card, Lynn, what a sweet scarecrow he is and so hip as well. I love his shirt and jeans and his shoes match so well. And what GREAT colouring you do. That old olive looks so nice. My fave shade of green. And the cross stitching is lovely. Perfect card with everything perfect.
