Happy Harvest

I made this card for the Scrapbooking & Crafting Friends DT using an image from Primsy Doodles on mygrafico.com. This scarecrow was just so cute that I had to pair him with these autumn colored papers and some raffia. I don't know why but I love raffia on autumn themed crafts.




My lay out is similar to one I saw and loved on the web last week. I wanted to give proper credit but now I can't find it! If you recognize this layout, let me know and I will give credit where it is due.
