After last night, these challenges could not be any more appropriate! At midnight, we were awakened by the siren going off & the severe weather alert on our phones. To the basement we went as a tornado alert was issued. Unusual around NE Ohio. Luckily, no tornado, but some very strong winds causing damage in some areas.
So when I saw today's challenge, I went looking for a Phyllis Harris stamp. I stamped this sweet image & colored with pencils. I sponged on some dark clouds.
Edit: 4 EF-1 and 1 EF-0 confirmed tornados in the greater Cleveland area.
Thanks for stopping by.

Glad you had warnings...and then no tornado, Karen, Can be scary. I remember when I lived on Lake Erie, occasionally we would see "water spouts" out on the lake which were like a tornado over the water. They never seemed to come ashore......thank goodness.
To your card.....It's GLORIOUS!! Really a beautiful card with your lovely subject and expert coloring.

Super storm cloud sky, not unlike what we had this afternoon, and then torrential rain which definitely was not for going out in. Beautiful colouring of your sweet image. I'm glad you didn't have the tornado.
Oh, I am glad you are safe and sound! Scary night! I love this image. I think I have this stamp set. You have colored her beautifully, and I love the stormy clouds! Beautiful!
