Harvest Blessings

We had so much rain this spring which resulted in my pumpkins seeds rotting after I planted them.  I planted a second time but too late.  So I am disappointed not to have any pumpkins this Fall but I do have lots of corn stalks for decorating.  And still eating corn, yellow neck squash, and ......
This pre-colored digital image and sentiment are by Doodle Pantry.  Just a great image depicting harvest.  This is part of the mid- month release.

Sketch is at Sweet Stop

Originally I was going to make the card with the diagonal part folding but decided to make it a panel - so much better for the cards I send to OWH; easier to insert into an envelop and more space for writing on the inside.
