Fun Fall Card with Peachy Keen Stamps

Oops!!  I just realized that this post didn't go up on Monday when it was suppose to.  I must have clicked save instead of publish and then I was gone most of that day for my grandmother's funeral and didn't check to see if it went up.  Here it is two days late, but I hope you like it!!  

I really LOVE fall!!  It is my favorite time of the year.  There are so many beautiful things to see......like the lovely way the leaves change color.  I was inspired by all the many colors of the fall leaves for my card today that I got to share over at the Peachy Keen Stamps blog......


I used the September Stamp Kit of the Month from Peachy Keen Stamps to stamp the scarecrow and then I colored him with my Copic markers and a few the pen details with a Sakura Gelly Roll pen.  I distressed a little piece of kraft cardstock with a craft knife and dark brown ink to look like a piece of wood.  I used my sewing machine to stitch around the card and the layered piece under the scarecrow.  I used a small ink pad to apply brown ink to the white background under the scarecrow and I really love the distressed look of it.


I cut the "fall" banner with my Cricut and put it on a piece of bakers twine from The Twinery.  I tied a yellow ribbon around the card and then used some foam adhesive to add dimension.  I hope that you are inspired to get to work on some fall themed projects of you own!!

Have a great day!!

Hugs,
Amy
