This week's Mojo Monday sketch challenge, presented on Julee's blog POETIC ARTISTRY ,is the perfect layout for my new Stampin' Up! set called Happy Blessings.
I love the colors of the background paper, made by Basic Grey, and the SU olive green and chocolate chip cardstock worked perfectly with it. I stamped the sentiment on a pumpkin punchout using a Martha Stewart Pumpkin punch. The scarecrow is colored with Prismacolor pencils.
I started out using a very pretty satin ribbon in the center that says pumpkin patch on it but it was just too elegant looking for this scarecrow card and so I changed my mind and decided to use the natural raffia. I like the look and it makes me think that perhaps the scarecrow is spilling his stuffing.
This is Julee's sketch challenge for this week. I really enjoyed getting to join in on this week's sketch.
The sun is finally out after a lot of rain so I think I'll take the dogs out for a romp while I can stay dry.
Until later.....
