My friend Tawnya gave me this yummy apple scented candle for my birthday last month. I had been burning it all day on Friday so my house would smell good for my weekend crop. The aroma of the candle, the cooler temperatures and a generally happy feeling just put me in the fall mood. I noticed that the first official day of fall was on Sunday and it seemed only natural to have a fall themed project for our free make & take.
Let me share it with you!
It was very simple to make :)
I used a deep orange cardstock base, cut to a 4 1/4 square. I added a golden yellow mat, on which I punched a scalloped edge along the bottom (love me some Stampin Up! punches). Next I dry embossed some leaves (Fiskars embossing Templates) on the brown triangle in the right corner. I have collected a bunch of cute fall stamps and this scarecrow is one of my favorites. I had to use it! Plus, I love to color :) I stamped the scarecrow with a black stazon ink pad and colored it in with colored pencils. I used a decorative corner punch to finish the edges. Next I mounted the scarecrow on another piece of the deep orange cardstock. What do you think of that cute little sentiment, "Happy Fall Y'all". I love it!
If you are interested in making some fall cards, contact me to set up a private class for yourself and at least one friend. You can also stop by the studio to purchase a precut/prestamped kit with instructions and materials to make 12 cards for only $10!
