Are you ready for day 3 of the countdown to the release of my newest stamp sets?!?(Available through Papertrey Ink on July 15th) It's been such a fun past few days... I'm BEYOND EXCITED TO SHARE TODAY!!! Seriously...these are my favorite projects using On My Couch & On My Couch Additions... (even though I honestly love how they all turned out)
Do you have friends you "chair-ish"? ... heehee
I was browsing my Papertrey Ink pattern paper and pulled out the Bitty Baby Blessing stack.... I LOVE the flowered paper in this collection and just knew it would make a great chair! I coordinated it with Bitty Boxes paper. (My fav paper, to date.) New sets like this are a great way to revive paper that you might have forgotten about!
"i chair-ish your friendship" ... Puns are so fun to incorporate into cards... and this sentiment is no exception. I kept the font simple since I wanted the images to be the stars of the set.. it is simple but I'm a huge fan of old fashioned typewriter style fonts.
Next is another card using the Chair image... with the circle solid pattern...
I included some sentiments in the set that could be used for the inside as well as the outside of a card. Here is "a good friend is like a special chair..." curved like a half circle on the acrylic block. (I used a punched cardstock circle to know how wide to form it.) I made sure I knew where I wanted the image before I stamped it too.
Here is the card front with a sweet Aqua Mist Circle patterned chair. I wanted a vintage feel and buttons were a must! (OK... they are always a must and I have to fight off using them on every project. LOL!)
I outlined the chair image with a C1 Copic marker... I love how the light Grey helps the chair pop. Here is another pattern paper pillow! I adhered it right to the chair and used the marker to outline it too... depth without a foam square!
Here is the inside of the card. The sentiment reads... "ready to comfort you and let you know they care."
There is something special about sitting on your own couch or comfy chair. Every time I get home from a trip I walk in the door and head for the couch. It's so HOME to me.
I thought I'd better share an actual couch card today too... here is one with two new sentiments and something special sittin' on that circle pattern couch!
Yep... a sweet little cat. This image has a special place in my heart since it was illustrated while looking at my sweet old-man cat, Rufus, who passed away just a few months ago. He was a total couch potato!
Now... I did include this little sassy sentiment... with the intention of it going with the let's chat sentiment... but I can also see some valentines usage with it! Heehee!
Nichole is featuring On My Couch today... Holy Comfy Couch Batman! Just wait til you see what she's made! Lauren also has some template goodness today and Dawn continues to Go Mod with her new set. Check 'em out!
Let me know what you think....What's been your favorite project so far?
