Happy Fall! A Gnome Scarecrow Fall Card

Happy Fall! A Gnome Scarecrow Fall Card

Hello everyone! Fall is here and things are thankfully starting to slow down a bit, knock on wood... haha! We have had some time to craft which has been super nice, we are looking forward to the cooler weather and less to do outside! Happy fall to everyone! Thank you so much for stopping by! If you like our blog and posts we would love for you to give our blog a follow! Just push "follow" button on the right side!

Let the crafting continue.... This card was super fun to create! It was for a few challenges, including The Freshly Made Sketches and The Art Nudge Challenge to name a couple. All links, sketches and inspiration photos to the blogs and challenges are at the end of this blog post. I wanted to create a fun fall scene with a scarecrow and I loved how this card turned out! I hope you like it too! I also posted a video of just the coloring of the scarecrow gnome, corn and crow. Check it out, it's posted below!

  1. Sabra and Holly, I just love your 'corn-y' scarecrow! I like the way you nudged Cecile's focal point just a little and really made it work for this Fall scene. Thanks for playing cards with us at FMS!
