COMFY CHAIRS

Hello!

A couple cards using an old favorite chair stamp. Playing along with CAS on Friday Challenge #261, with prompt to use designer paper. 

 TECHNIQUES

basic stamping (words / chair legs - chair was stamped on card front, and again on patterned paper / spatters)

foam mounting (chair / pillow*)

colored pencil coloring (chair legs)
