I'm sharing with you Ellie w/ Scarecrow and it has really put me in the mood for these COOL mornings, on my way to work! I love the combination of blue & brown so that's what I chose for Ellie-did the Scarecrow in
Complimentary Copic colors. THEN, what a wonderful find when I pulled out some Fall paper I recently purchased to find a Perfect Match!! I edged the background in a colorbox Blue and Cat's Eye Chestnut Roan, extended the brown mat behind the image and used raffia** for the "ribbon". One of my other papers had these adorable pumpkins on it (see inside) so I cut them out and elevated the one in the front.
What Fun this was!! You need this image for your collection! ** My trick with the Raffia: You know how "bundled Raffia" from craft stores always has kinks in it and is hard to get to lay flat? My crafty daughter gave me this hint--buy a child's size HULA SKIRT from a Party store! You can just hang it up by the waistband string near your craft area, it hangs straight, cut off from the waist or whatever length you want. ** Yea! no more kinks!
