Brown n Red Chair


I'm leaving for vacation tomorrow but I found a few minutes to quickly make this card. Only 30 minutes which is lightening fast for me! This is for challenge CASDT09FALL02 to do a monochromatic card in shades of brown with just a tad bit of red. I think this turned out pretty cool. I really like my new SU Kraft tafeta ribbon. It's very pretty & versatile!

To make the floor around the chair, I masked the chair with Eclipse tape, then I stuck a post it note across the whole main panel. Starting ON the post it note, I sponged Close to Cocoa downward, in circlular motions until I ran out of ink.

Stamps: Papertrey Ink On My Couch
Paper: Very Vanilla, Close to Cocoa, Chocolate Chip, Real Red
Ink: Close to Cocoa, Chocolate Chip, Momento Tuxedo Black
Accessories: SU Kraft Tafeta Ribbon, Chocolate Prismacolor pencil (a little shading on the chair), Copics (chair legs and shading on the pillow)

Enjoy!
