Raking it Up - Not In

I think if I post more cards for fall or autumn, the weather will change and we'll start having cooler temperatures.  Don't want snow like some places are actually having now, but a little chill in the air would feel good.  Raking the leaves like this little guy is getting ready to do wouldn't feel so great though.

I used an image and sentiment from Darcie's and it's colored with Copics.  A little layering of papers, some twine, and it was done.

I'll enter this in the challenge at Cute Card Thursday (Autumn) and Pixie's Crafty Workshop (Snippets).

Thanks for stopping by............and have a great weekend.

I keep hoping we'll have some of those cooler Fall temps too, but Summer seems to want to hang on! Your little leaf raker is adorable. Beautifully colored and I love these Autumn colors!

I love the colors and layers - especially that green panel that looks like a knitted sweater! Perfect for fall, and after this sweltering summer, I say bring it on! I'm ready for cooler weather!

Yep, maybe so! Keep em coming! This is a real cutie. We finally planted a tree so we can have a leaf drop, LOL! I am wondering if we will ever have to use a rake again. This is a perfect Fall card, Lynn!

What fabulous papers and layout for this little guy all bundled up for autumn. I wish he would bring his rake by my house. I still have leaves from last year!!

Wouldn't mind raking in a few $$$, Lynn. Love your wee fellow about to rake the leaves, and I hope the temperatures will soon drop for you - I just wish ours would rise a bit and stay dry for a a week or so! :)

Such comforting colours of fall here, Lynn. The kraft card stock adds so much to the card. The little boy is the image of happiness and the DP matches so very well. Your cards are always so nicely done. The twine looks just right.

Love,
Monica
