This is it…the week that we all have been anxiously waiting for – the NEW CATALOG LAUNCHES tomorrow! I know that you all are as excited as I am but before we get to that fun…today I decided to play with the Freshly Made Sketches as I loved the sketch!
Here you go…here is the sketch and here is my take! This stamp set is another great example of a versatile set that covers several holidays the best thing – it comes in a bundle = an instant 15% 0ff! It is the Happy Scenes stamp set and the "bundle" part is and AMAZING window framelit!!!
The over all size of the card is 5" X 7" and out came the watercoloring again! Remember….practice, practice and then do it again. I do highly recommend to use the watercolor paper especially when you are using the Aqua Painters as you have more of a tendency to have more moisture.
You can see in the "scrolling store" the colors that I used…again, it is a fun and relaxing way to make a card. (You will also see that I made a boo-boo in the scrolling store but just added another underneath – I have all of my posts ready for the week) – I did not realize it until I was double checking!
Built for Free Using: My Stampin BlogIsn't this a super sweet Halloween/fall image? It reminds my of snoopy – I wish there was a small snoopy sitting under the tree – would that be super cute!
The above picture you can see a good view of the Boho Chic Embossing folder – a perfect little bit of interest that I think compliments the fun designer series paper!
When you break this down, it is a super easy card and this is ONE FABULOUS SKETCH….these are the types that I say "bank it" for the future as it is a keeper!
After I was finished the card, I looked at it and thought something was needed…(see….sometimes this happens to me – all projects are "a work in progress"….so out came the Bakers Twine) and it worked! I kinda like the "sprigs"
Fun, simple = one great fall card that you could easily not stamp the Halloween Sentiment and have a fabulous fall card that I know anyone would love to receive!
Hope you like it…please do not be timid about watercoloring – I will need to do a video for you so you can see that it is not scary…..no MONSTERS will jump out!!!!

Love this…reminds me of a Tasha Tudor illustration! 🙂
Hello my friend…I am back from vacation and catching up with your blog. I love this card and agree with the Snoopy thought. The “twigs” are just the right touch and it was so clever of how you inserted the. Have a great day!
LOVE, love, love this card and sketch!! Snoopy would be awesome…he would brighten any spot. My brother has a small tattoo on his ankle of Snoopy (he is surfing a wave) and it makes me smile every time I see it, a good 25+ years later. Have a super week!!
What a sweet card and I usually don’t use that term but that is what came to my little brain when I saw this! The coloring is perfect! That embossing folder looks really good with this paper! I have used that idea of taping and tucking the baker’s twine on some balloon strings and it worked well! The bits look great on here too and you are right it needed just a little something. Love the dashes on there too. Well done! Fall is my favorite season.
Very nice Susan. Thinking of getting this bundle now.

This is such a nice fall scene and non-scary Halloween card. This is perfect to send to my 93 year old “Aunt Jean” whose real name is Aunt Mary. TFS
Very sweet card, and you are right about Snoopy. He’s probably out looking for a pumpkin to carve.
Agree too that watercoloring is quite fun and very forgiving. It’s one of my favorite ways to add color.
Looking forward to tomorrow!
Ohmigawd! Ohmigawd! This is so awesome! I was eyeballing this set and now you show this fabulous card. Swoon!
Love that cute Halloween scene! Great colors – perfect for the occasion! Glad you joined us at FMS!
Beautiful Halloween card! Love the watercolour! You’ve done such a great job! The embossing is fabulous! Thanks for joining us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!
