Welcome to a blog hop to showcase the new dies just released for a slew of Tim Holtz Red Rubber Cling fall and Halloween stamps. Here is my card for the hop, featuring The Scarecrow:
I created my fall-ish sky using Oxide inks, tapped on a bit of white gouache for stars, and stamped my bats directly onto the panel.
Then I cut a piece of Masking Magic to create the simple black hill, and blending on Black Soot Oxide ink to make it nice and dark.
I colored my scarecrow exactly how I did for this video, which I shared the other day.
I love how big that mood is, and how the scarecrow is rising up out of nowhere.

I love your background-the colors are just right for that eerie dusk setting. The scarecrow foreground makes the perfect accompanyment. I’m not sure I’m ready for fall yet, but you’ve been me something to think about.
