Scarecrow and Blog Candy

001 copy

The days of 2012 just seem to be flying by.  I can't believe it is almost Thanksgiving and then Christmas.  This week I chose this sweet little scarecrow stamp.  I am not sure where I got this as it is unmounted. He is perfect for the fall weather we are having.  I just finished up pulling up all my garden goodies and getting it ready for winter hibernation.  

The winner of last week's blog candy is...#5

Gorgeous and adorable, Dawn! Love the sparkle, too. Sorry for your friend's misfortunes. I hope her fight from breast cancer is successful and they recover quickly from Sandy, also.

Lynette you are the lucky winner of a $20 online gift certificate to any crafty store.  Just email me at dawnburnworth@yahoo.com.

Next week I am offering up my giving thanks blog candy. I feel so blessed to have you all visit me here each week. I know I don't get around to blogland much.  My daughters are all coming for a week to celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas. I am doubly blessed.   Please leave a comment for the opportunity to win another $20 gift certificate to any online stamping/crafting store.

  10. He is without a doubt the cutest scarecrow I have ever seen! You did an amazing job coloring him (as always) and I love your layout. The button & gingham just give it such a sweet feel. Enjoy your daughters! Family is the best gift of all & the one we have to thank God for above everything else!

  14. Sounds like you will be having a wonderful visit. We won't do much for Thanksgiving, never do. It was always my four days to get ready for the Christmas holiday when I worked. We put up the tree, put up the outside lights and rested.....the next 4 weeks would be grueling and I never had much time to do anything but sleep and work. I'm looking forward to my first holiday without Big Brown.
    I love your coloring of the scarecrow. I've still not got the coloring down yet. First, I need to get some better paper purchased. I wish I lived closer to the city and could take the images to a Kinko's or Staples or some such for laser printing but, alas, I'm a good 2 hours away from any place like that. Thank you for letting me know how you do your images. I'm going to give the embossing a try but my ink is really dry when it comes out of my printer so I doubt if it works for me either.
