Good Morning Everyone! Here's a couple of cards I did for the twins using colored clip art that I decoupaged. I didn't notice until I had finished them and only because my husband pointed it out that the sign "Autumn Blessings" that the scarecrow is holding has an apostrophe when it shouldn't. I'll have to fix it but not certain how I'm going to do it since I pierced and pop dotted the scarecrow's hands to thread the craft yarn through them, so it would involve taking the whole card apart. I can't believe that I over looked it...must be a case where you can't see the forest for the trees. Anyway, here they are. If I can't figure out a way to "save" them, I'll end up doing them over without the sign. I thought about putting a crow on the sign where the apostrophe is. If anyone has a suggestion I'd love to hear it---

Oh my absolutely stunning cards.
Kelly these are just adorable, how about taking 2 stripes of coordinating paper and run the "Autumn Blessings" through your printer. It would give it a little touch of more color and dimension? Hugs
These are so cute Kelly! Yeah I would not take them apart to fix that apostrophy either. What about a little sunflower or tiny button to cover it up? Hope this helped! :) Tracy
Dear Kelly,
These cards are beautiful!! I love them. I think the way to go is definitely a little crow on the apostrophe.
Kelly..these are adorable! That darn apostrophe! cute little pumkins here and there or a crow would make it so no one would ever know :)
You are amazingly talented..you will figure something out :)
Hugs..

So adorable... I wouldn't fix it, the twins won't notice I'm sure!
How adorable! I wouldn't change a thing, it's fantastic!!!! Have a great Veterans Day!
I LOVE them! Luv the colors, scarecrow, the hanging sign, well, everything! I like the the crow idea, too! Hugz
Your cards are adorable. what a great keepsake for the twins of their first Thanksgiving
Hugs,

These cards are adorable and I wouldn't change a thing. I wouldn't have noticed had you not said something!
I was thinking the same thing, the twins won't notice, LOL. But I know as a perfectionist it'll bug the crap out of you. Any of the ideas have been great. Do what's easiest. These are adorable!!! I love how you're doing all of the twins cards, the same, yet different. xxD
Hello Kelly
-the first Thanksgiving for the twins-a nice event for your family!
Your creations are stunning and the image so cute!I love the colden patterns.Perhaps you can use a leave or a smal flower?It is handmade and your are always so perfect.
Hugs Gudrun
Kelly - First of all, the cards are precious, what a keepsake! I don't know how the "sign" is made but I was thinking you could use your artistic talent to "weather" the board. Maybe draw a knot where the apostrophe is and pick another spot, then add some cracks to weather it a bit. Again, I don't know if this is possible but they're too perfect to not save them. I like the tiny flower idea or leaves. Maybe a ladybug?

What adorable cards. These twins are lucky to get these cards and that is what makes them so unique. I would'nt do anything to them. Love them the way they are.
Kelly these cards are way too precious not to save! Anything could cover them up. You've gotten some great ideas and you're so creative! I know you'll be able to pull it off! You do such gorgeous work! I LOVE these!!
OMG Kelly, love these cards, they are adorable.. what a cute scarecrow and cards are so bright and fun, love them xxx
For the life of me I don't know how in the world you pump out these beautiful cards day after day! You're my idol, Kelly! I'm late checking in tonight but never miss a day ;)
So cute!! Great scarecrow!
Adorable cards! Love the touch of gold on your card. Wonderful design!
Adorable cards for the twins!!!! I wouldn't even worry about it....the boys can't read yet anyhow...LOL.....and maybe someday when they can...it would be a fun time to see if they even notice...love them!!
wow!! absolutely gorgeous Kelly!!!!
Kelly, these are the cutest Thanksgiving cards ever!! The twins are so lucky to have you. TFS

Oh my goodness, Kelly... these are just cuter than cute! It sounds like an awful lot of work for one silly apostrophe. What if you just make two more signs and snip off the jagged edges and then put it on top of the existing, sort of like a layer? Sorry... that's all I've got! LOL!
Wow Kelly these are absolutely amazing!!!
hugs,
Rachel
OMG!!! Soooo CUTE!
