Scarecrow

I love this stamp! But he took forever to color and stamp to get a good impression without smudges or faint spots. I think I made like 60 impressions to get 25 cards, grrr. The pumpkins are glitter stickers that don't really show up well in the scan. The background is stippling done with a stiff brush and blue and purple inks. Thanks draygonflies for that suggestion!

I saw this cute image and had to carve it for the GAQLBE08. Of course, I had to also make LTCs with it before sending it off to NY. It took a while to get the colors right, but I finally matched the corner borders to the stamp image in a photo editing program. The letters are stuck on with glue dots.
