Hello again lovely peeps

today i bring you a new challenge at 
with the theme of 
Add some Leaves

i have 2 cards for you because I'm covering a teamie 

so here is the first 


he is called scarecrow and friends from QKR Stampede

first i printed and coloured him , then thinking along the lines of hes got a bag of corn, i found an image of a cornfield, looking through google images the real photos of cornfields didn't quite fit, then i found this one of a screen shot from a game , the style just seemed right for him and his friends, :)
i mounted it onto a  soft orange, and went around the edge with black marker to just give a bit of interest.
i found some brown gingham ribbon and lay a strip across the bottom, added a beaded twig which reminded me of corn , tied a knot with the gingham on the stalk and then fussy cut and added the image.

and the second


this image is the beautiful Rosalee from Delicious Doodles

for this one i found some really pretty vintage papers, cut to size and layered onto a creamy/beige paper with a very muted pattern, the i went over all the edges with a pro marker using a fine tip and did cross stitches all around each piece.
the image was once again coloured with pro markers and fussy cut, then mounted with sticky pads onto the oval mat, i then found some leaves in My craft Studio printed them out in a couple of sizes and fussy cut, then arranged on the card and finished with a couple of flowers.

so there you have my 2 cards i hope they give you a bit of inspiration and you come play along
