Happy Fall?

Today I thought I would share a card I made for Joan's Garden challenge #8. She asked us to make a card with either fall leaves or pumpkins and have either embossing or glitter on the card.
So this is what I came up with, after I dusted off my fall sets. LOL
The tree and the bird stamp are from Hero Arts. I almost forgot I had this set! I love this tree, and I think it's counts for fall leaves. The scarecrow, pumpkins (another requirement) and the corner swag all come from Theresa's Autumn Beauty at Gina's K Designs.
The very bottom layer is a pumpkin cuttlebug folder (dry embossing) and I added some Metallic rub because in Wisconsin we always have frost on our pumpkins. The swag was embossed with PK Glitz Fall Splendor glitter. The tree, pumpkins, and scarecrow were all colored in copics. The bling, was compliments of Patti's blog's anniversary prize I won. Thanks Patti.
Have a happy day!

Colleen, love that tree and your coloring is awesome. I also really like the way you put the embossed panel along the bottom. I need to post my card for Joan's...here's hoping one of our gang wins this week. Take card.
