Since we were to make a loooonnng card, I thought I would share with you the weather I went through today, only picture all these leaves falling right over a pool.....the card....
From left to right:
Panel one - when I left for work early this morning it was over cast and a little chilly.
Panel two - the wind came up and started blowing leaves everywhere. They were falling in the pool faster than I could scoop them out.
Panel three - then along with the wind came the rains. Fortunately, it didn't start raining real hard until my last pool. So after I finished it, I went to Michaels and shopped......like I need more craft supplies! hehe
All coloring was done with re-inkers, then versa marked and clear ep. The clouds were sponged. The three green leaves are from my new MS punch. It comes with two clear stamps and the punch. Way cool. The fence is also MS.
Layered it all over some orange cs I put on a white card that I had sponged the edges.
Well, hope you had fun going with me today....TFL :0)
Hi Sis! How's your weather today?

This is a terrific card, kinda sums up what our entire Fall was like here in Pennsylvania. The leaves "started to turn" then wind, then rain, then forget it . . . they were gone. :( bummer . . . I love the colors of fall . . . *sigh*

I love this card. The clouds are just fantastic. What is the stencil? Debzi, we had the thunder and lightening here today, as well, the Beagle didn't like it, as usual! We have lots of leaves too especially from the neighbours oak tree, but what I hate the most are pine needles.....darn things line themselves up in the cracks between the paving stones.
