Hi Friends,
I wanted to wish you all a very blessed and peaceful Christmas and a healthy and happy new year!
I created this video that shares the sweet words of the late great Margaret Wise Brown from her book ON CHRISTMAS DAY
that I was so very blessed to illustrate. I still have a few first
edition copies left and you can get a signed copy from the
illustrator(me) in my shop here. The beautiful guitar in the background is my talented husband.
To see a preview of this sweet book click on the video below.
You my friends, are the reason for the joy and success of Phyllis Harris Designs and I cherish you and your support. I so appreciate you sharing our website with your friends and family; and I wish you all a blessed Christmas season and a happy 2016!
I will talk to you next year!

Let the holiday prep begin! What!?
Dear Friends,
I cannot believe it is already November!! I've been very busy in the studio getting lots of things ready for the upcoming holiday shopping that is about to begin and for those early shoppers, I have a coupon code that can be used in either my shop or my Etsy shop. Be sure to enter THANKS15 at checkout and receive 15% off your order.
I have lots of wonderful items for all of the people on your list that are looking for something to help them re-visit their wonderful childhood memories in decorating their home with my wall art prints. Such as this dandelion girl wall art print that was featured in Romantic Homes magazine
or this little boy and the man in the moon art print, featured in Vanity Fair's Gift guide.
And for gifting those creative and crafty friends with my adult coloring books. What better way to help get through the sometimes stressful holiday preparations than sitting down with a coloring book to get that relaxing therapy that is so needed at the end of a long day. In fact, I recently read an article that stated, "The health benefits go beyond relaxation, and include exercising fine motor skills and training the brain to focus.
Doctors have known about these benefits since the early 1900s. Psychiatrist Carl Jung, the founder of analytical psychology, prescribed coloring to his patients to calm and center their minds. Doctors today continue to follow Jung’s lead and still recommend the activity to combat anxiety.
The fact that coloring is structured activates the logic part of the brain, and generates a creative mindset, said New York-based clinical psychologist Dr. Ben Michaelis.
“Because it’s a centering activity, the amygdala, which is the part of the brain that is involved with our fear response, actually gets a bit, a little bit of a rest,” Michaelis said, “and it ultimately has a really calming effect over time.”
Be sure you check out my new short 2 minute video showing the interiors and more information about one of my favorite coloring books, The Adventures of Brandy and Emma that I offer by clicking on the video below.
And for those of you who send out Christmas cards and want to get started early this year, I have a very limited supply of boxed Christmas Cards left in my Etsy shop. For more details follow the link by clicking on the photo.
In my family, we always read a favorite Christmas book as a family throughout the holiday season. Why not start a new tradition with ON CHRISTMAS DAY, written by Margaret Wise Brown, author of the wonderful GOODNIGHT MOON and illustrated by me. I have a limited supply of the first edition copies in my shop and will sign each one that is ordered from there.
As we enter into that time of year at Thanksgiving, I want to say just how thankful I am for ALL of you, my wonderful supporters and friends here, that make it possible for me to do what I love and have the opportunity to share it with the world. How could I ask for more? I am so grateful for each and every one of you!

Lots of fun updates to share just in time for early holiday shopping.
Dear Friends,
I have lots of fun updates to share with you all! I've been very busy in the studio to get lots of things ready for the upcoming holiday shopping that is about to begin. Since you all are my lovely newsletter followers, I wanted to let you all know about some of them first, right here and now since one of them is very timely so be sure to read to the end of this newsletter!
Let's start with the Christmas Cards I have just added to my Etsy shop. This is a bit of an experiment as I don't usually carry cards in my shops. I have a very limited number of Christmas cards(boxed sets) that I just listed this afternoon here. If these sell out, I may try to reorder some more but I will have to wait and see. At the time I wrote this newsletter, there are only 1o boxes left since some of them were already spoken for so don't delay if you want one as they may sell out quickly! I just got them from the printer and they turned out beautiful! Very heavy card stock with matching white envelopes. Here is a peek at those cards. For more details follow the link by clicking on the photos.
Other news... A few years back, I had the great honor and privilege to illustrate the words of the late and amazing Margaret Wise Brown, the author of GOODNIGHT MOON. It is a sweet nativity story, titled ON CHRISTMAS DAY. I have decided to sell some of my first edition copies in my shop here. This is the first edition signed by the illustrator, me. This might be a fun one to add to to your family Christmas traditions.
And now on to the adult coloring books that I now have available! Fun and unique gift options for you or your crafty friends who love to color! There are now 3 to choose from! Click on the photos below to get more details of each.
Besides all of the new fun products I have been adding to the shop there are LOTS of art prints to choose from, too!
As always, thank you for being a part of our wonderful community. I am so grateful for each and every one of you!

It's here!!! WE DID IT!
Dear Friends,
It's here!!! Thanks to all of you who gave your input, WE DID IT, again! Another Phyllis Harris coloring book is available today at this link. It will also be available later in the week on Amazon as well. Keep an eye on my facebook page for updates!
Since I have been illustrating children's books since 1999 and I am the illustrator of over 35 children's books, I thought it was high time I created and published a children's book myself! I am SO excited!
Introducing my 2 in 1 coloring/story book. And my studio companion Cassie give her hardy approval!
It makes a wonderful keepsake! Adults can enjoy the act of coloring AND enjoy reading with their little ones after the book is complete. This 32 page coloring book/story book featuring a lovable little girl, Emma and her golden retriever friend, Brandy. It includes the 14 timeless one-sided images created on nostalgic cream colored paper.
For those of you who are new to my blog, here is a little back story on Brandy and Emma...
In case you haven't noticed, I have lots of art featuring golden retrievers and a small blonde headed girls? Ever wonder why? Many of you on this list are already familiar with my Brandy and Emma characters because of the stamping/crafting community. But for those of you who don't know who Brandy and Emma are, let me explain.
Here is the original Brandy, the golden retriever and Emma.(aka Em or Emily, our daughter, the photo taken many years ago, as she is now a mama herself.)
Brandy was our very first beloved golden retriever who has been gone from our lives for many years now but never gone from our hearts. She was the dearest creature and I often thought she was an angel sent by God to our family.
There are still lots of my first coloring book, the heART of childhood, going out to their new homes so be sure to get your copy soon as I am down to three last boxes and I would be so honored if you shared this link to my coloring book with your friends and family who might enjoy this new fun craze of adult coloring. It is so relaxing after a stressful day. Oh, and be sure to use the FREE U.S. SHIPPING coupon code USShipFree at checkout!
As always, thank you for being a part of our wonderful community. I am so grateful for each and every one of you!

What's next?
Dear Friends,
Often times, as a solo-entrepreneur I run out of ideas. What I mean is, as I am trudging along going full speed ahead doing whatever is on the top of my priority list, i.e.- getting my new adult coloring books out to the public, and then I realize...what's next? As a small business owner, my job is never done. That's not a complaint, but a realization that I need to always be in the creative mode, at least a LOT of the time. That's not necessarily a problem since I LOVE what I do; create art! However, in putting my business woman cap on, I realize I need to keep the momentum going so.... I have been working behind the scenes on a BRAND NEW idea. A Brandy and Emma Coloring Book/Story Book, a 2 -in 1 book. 1, adults can enjoy the act of coloring and 2, enjoy reading with your little ones after the book is complete. It makes a wonderful keepsake for everyone to enjoy for years to come! Be watching for it's release any day.
You may ask...who is Brandy and Emma?! Have any of you noticed I have lots of art featuring golden retrievers and a small blonde headed girls? Ever wonder why? Many of you on this list are already familiar with my Brandy and Emma characters because of the stamping/crafting community. But for those of you who don't know who Brandy and Emma are, let me explain.
Here is the original Brandy, the golden retriever and Emma.(aka Em or Emily, our daughter, the photo taken many years ago, as she is now a mama herself.)
Brandy was our very first beloved golden retriever who has been gone from our lives for many years now but never gone from our hearts. She was the dearest creature and I often thought she was an angel sent by God to our family.
The character of Emma was based on our own precious daughter, Emily as a small girl. I am thinking it is finally time to create a book just for the two of them to go on their adventures! What would you all think of a coloring book of The Adventures of Brandy and Emma?
To get a vision of what I am speaking of...Here are few of my best selling wall art prints that will be included in black and white sketch form in the coloring book.
There are still lots of my first coloring book, the heART of childhood, going out to their new homes so be sure to get your copy soon as I only have 3 boxes left! And I would be so honored if you shared this link to my coloring book with your friends and family who might enjoy this new fun craze of adult coloring. It is so relaxing after a stressful day.

Woohoo! It's here!!
Woohoo!!! They are here!! My second edition coloring books, the heART of childhood
arrived! And wouldn't you know my strong husband was out of town on
that day so I had to carry them all in by myself, lol! I certainly got
my workout that day.
I am so pleased with how they turned out! Here is a quick video of me showing some of the interior pages.
I am so excited that lots of Bible journalers have started using some of the images from my coloring books as well as those who just love to color for a relaxing and stress free past time.
I am offering FREE U.S. Shipping on the second edition but be sure to use the special coupon code USShipFree at checkout. It doesn't matter if you get one book or 10 books. The shipping is still free (for those in the U.S.). So sorry international friends! I am hoping to eventually find a way to get my book overseas. But for slightly more affordable international rates go to my Etsy shop here.
Be sure to check out some tips on coloring techniques in the videos on my Facebook page here and here.
I cannot thank you all enough, my wonderful community of friends, for all of your encouragement and support through this whole coloring book project from the very beginning stages to now, my second printing!
On another note: I am now offering original watercolor paintings in my Etsy shop of this brand new illustration which is offered in both boy and girl options. I am also offering color art prints as well as sketch only prints with no color. Click on the image to read more information on each option.
I would be honored if you shared this link to my coloring book with your friends and family who might enjoy this new fun craze of adult coloring. It is so relaxing after a stressful day.
As always, thank you for being a part of our wonderful community. I am so grateful for each and every one of you!

2nd Edition of the heART of childhood; Adult coloring book now available!
While I was thrilled with the production and reception of my first
coloring book printing, I came across an even better product through a
different supplier. I am even more thrilled to announce the second
edition of my coloring book!
They’re here!!!! My second edition of my adult coloring books, the heART of childhood just arrived!! I still cannot believe my first edition of books sold out in a little over a month! Truly it has been such a blessing and so unexpected. A HUGE thank you to ALL of you who have helped make that possible.
Ok, why a second edition? Because I listened to my customers and now the NEW features are:
1. Printing on one side of the paper only. Now you may color using markers or gel pens, as well as colored pencils and crayons if you choose; and they won't bleed through to the image on the opposite side. It also makes it fun if you want to take the completed piece out of the book and frame it when you are done with your marvelous creations. And now the book is twice as thick, too!
2. It is now “perfect bound” instead of saddle stitched.(aka stapled) There is a peek of what I am talking about in the photo so you can visualize the difference.
3. Most of the art stayed the same in the NEW 2nd edition of the heART of childhood however, I did add 4 new images, and one illustration that has never been seen before!
With all of these improvements, my cost did increase a bit but I feel it is well worth the little bit extra. But the good news is I am still offering FREE U.S. SHIPPING by using the special code: USShipFree So go check heART of childhood: An adult coloring book out here!
