I love the look of this room for the ribbon reel's second challenge. A few of the elements stood out for me: the pink chair, the frame hanging from the ceiling, and the groupings of 4.
The challenge set forth was to create a card (or project) using the colors from the inspiration photo, flowers, and baker's twine. I thought this was the perfect opportunity to use one of my new stamp sets, Close to My Heart's May Stamp of the Month - Chairs to You. I inked the chair stamp first with Versamark and then with Bamboo ink, by doing it this way I only had to stamp the image once. I embossed it with clear detail embossing powder and colored it with water color pencils just to give it a hint of pink color. For the embossed back ground, I adhered the frame with the colonial white panels first and then ran it through an embossing folder, leaving the bottom half inch out so that it would be embossed. Then I stamped the sentiment where it wasn't embossed. Then I highlighted the design with ink. I added some lace, seam binding, baker's twine, and one hand made paper rose.
