Autumn Scarecrow

It's Wednesday, which means it is time for a "What If? Wednesday Sketch".  You have two weeks to enter your card using the sketch posted on the Repeat Impressions blog...The House That Stamps Built.  All participants will have a chance to win a $25 Repeat Impressions gift certificate.  I hope you'll play along with us.

This week's sketch looks like this:

As you know, I am a sketch rebel.  I can never, ever get any one sketch to work totally for me.  I so admire those who have the talent to do so.  Usually, many layers are hard for me, so I thought this simpler sketch would be right up my alley.  WRONG...look at all of my additions (sigh).

For this card, I stamped the Repeat Impressions image of "Scarecrow & Friend" (3309-K) onto X-Press It cardstock with Marvy black dye.  I colored the image with Copic markers.  I framed the image panel with black cardstock.

The card panel is from My Mind's Eye.  I framed it too with black cardstock, with yet another frame of kraft.  I added a kraft scalloped corner cut with a paper punch.  Sheer brown ribbon and a brown button tied with hemp put the finishing touches on this card.
