GOOD NEWS!
THIS CARD IS NAMED A
SPLITCOASTSTAMPERS FAVORITE OF THE
WEEK ENDING - SEPTEMBER 23, 2017!!
I have been mulling over creative ideas in order to use my Adirondack chairs, which is part of the new die set in Stampin' Up's annual catalog named, "Seasonal Layers." It a great set with many different dies besides the chair, and it coordinates with the "Colorful Seasons" stamp set. I went to a card class in June and made several cards using both items, but I have not cracked the seal on my own set, and I was anxious to do so.
I had an idea for an anniversary card, which was my focus when I started this card, with the sentiment inside..."Life is better when there are two," thus the reason for using two Airdondack chairs, but I am undecided, and may use it for one of the many October birthdays on my "To Do" list.
I also wanted to enter the card in several Splitcoaststamper challenges, which helped me come up with my color scheme and making it a fall card. Take a peek to see how my Adirondack chair card turned out. Unfortunately, the colors are a bit washed out. They are much more vibrant in RIL!
