An Autumn Bunny and a Reindeer in Red and Brown

It's poured with rain all day today so I made two more cards.  First up is an autumn one to send to my sister who has been spotting wild bunnies in the ravine behind her house.  It's for The Paper Players "Signs of Autumn" - nothing like a bare tree with one final leaf clinging to it and patches of mushrooms popping up to signify autumn.  And also for The Four Seasons Challenge "Anything Goes Fall" and Simply CAS "Autumn".

I stamped the images, stupidly forgetting to use red to stamp the leaf so went over it with a red marker (that didn't cover up the black stamping very well). Then I sponged some blue and green around the images. I stamped my sentiment and smudged it, so restamped it on a scrap of cs and die cut it with a label die.  

Then a card for 52 Christmas Card Throwdown "Brown and Red":

I stamped the collage image in brown - thank goodness for my MISTI as it took several stampings to get a good impression.  After restamping so many times, I lost the definition in the reindeer's eyes, so added a bit of black marker to the eyes and a bit of white gel pen above and below them.  I trimmed it with a narrow border beyond the image and layered it on a piece of red corrugated card stock.

I'd never used either the stamp or red corrugated card stock before so I'm linking it up to NBUS as well.
