Just sitting here.....

I have a friend who is hurting right now and I am doing exactly what my sentiment says.......just sitting here thinking about you....
I figured I had done enough of the "sitting here" and decided to make her a card. Yes, I have a gazillion cards sitting in my drawer that I could just pull out....but it didn't mean the same to me as making one especially for her.
This is done on some Webster's petite papers and I stamped the Hero Arts chair. I masked the chair and then stamped the doily and embossed it in vanilla.
Tied up with ribbon and then added the sentiment with a special Melissa Frances broach.
Here is a close up of the chair detail...I added some micro brads and then a little rhinestone to the center of each "button". This was to balance out the sparkle of the broach. Colored with my copics directly on the Webster's pages patterned paper with my B90 series.

Now....off to deliver my card :)

I'm sorry to hear your friend is having a tough time. This certainly will let her know she is loved - great combination of elements! It's like that chair was just made for that paper : )

you know, if someone sat in that chair, those rhinestones would really hurt! :P
