Ellie w/ Scarecrow

Happy Fall Ya'll!!

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!

Pilgrim Girl -Inspiration Card

Hi Everyone!  This is my first card for Paper Nest Dolls and I'm thrilled to death to be joining you Ladies for the Nov. 1st post.  Until then, I'd like to share an inspiration card for you for the upcoming Thanksgiving Holiday, using Pilgrim Avery!  She was an absolute dream to color up using copics.  I found some "heritage-like" design papers and added some hand-crocheted (HMBM) small flowers in the colors of the card for the corner.  I've been waiting for just the right creation to share them!  With the pearl centers, they are nestled in among the paper flowers and buds.  On the inside, I finished it with the same paper and a stamped Thanksgiving sentiment.  I can't wait to join you in November and am looking forward to using all of Christines' gorgeous images!
