"Michelle, ma belle" sont les mots qui vont tres bien ensemble, tres bien ensemble...I always thought that song was funny considering that Michel is a male name in France. I had a friend who went on a trip to France when we were in high school, and she kept getting funny looks when she introduced herself as Michelle.
I kept the layout the same and the fall theme, but I don't have any cornucopia stamps so I used a scarecrow instead. My sentiment is the same as hers except a different stamp, and I used the Sanded BG stamp on my card front like she did. I changed the colors to a color challenge I hadn't done yet...only 34 more to go and I'm done with that particular self-challenge
I really do enjoy watercoloring. I started out with the three colors for the CC I chose, and then added a few more in to color in the whole image. After I painted my scarecrow, I used a sponge dauber to daub Soft Sky ink on the background so he'd have some sky behind him. I'm pretty pleased with how he turned out. The sentiment tag is not adhered to the card front, it just hangs there.

This is so cute! Your coloring is wonderful, and I love the Sanded background with this. I also love your circle sentiment. Gee, I guess I really like everything about it!
