I'll show you my Fall card first. Yesterday, we had 78 degrees here in NW Wisconsin. Today, we have 48 degrees and 30 mile an hour winds. The leaves are falling, so my card fits right in!
I used Fancy Pants Summer's End 6x6 paper on this card, two different Spellbinder's dies, Copic markers, Reasonable ribbon, and a Unity Stamp of the Week designed by Phyllis Harris. My first pet ever was a big, white rabbit, so this takes me back to childhood. That's Sniffer and I, alright, playing in the Autumn leaves!
The second card, also features a Unity Phyllis Harris stamp. I had some help while photographing the card. Since there's a Golden Retriever on the card, I thought I'd show you my helper.
Molly thinks I need to make the Golden Retriever's fur a little redder to match hers better. I'm working on it, girl. I'm just not that good at coloring with these new Copics yet!
And, here's a close up of the card Molly is critiquing:
I used Echo Park For the Record II 6x6 papers and Reasonable ribbon on this card, along with a Spellbinders die and Copic markers. The corners were rounded with a corner chomper.
And, wouldn't you know, there's a new release of Phyllis Harris stamps at Unity starting today. If there are any with Golden Retrievers, they'll soon be heading to my mailbox, I'm afraid! Hope you find some time to make cards on National Card Making Day. I'm driving 4 hours to take my Goldens on a walk to raise $ and awareness for the Golden Retriever Rescue Group of Wisconsin. No card making for me, but lots of Golden memories -- and pictures.
Cute cards, Julie! I like the die you used on the second card, it really frames your image wonderfully!
