Poster: PH in VA

Here's my second round submission for the SCS CAS Summer 2011 Design Team.

I tried coloring the chair to make it look kind of old and weathered, but I haven't convinced myself yet that I succeeded there. The card base is stamped with the Sanded background in Versamark to keep it from looking so stark and plain.

Thanks for looking!

Comments are welcome.

Patricia, looks like your chair has had a lot of sun and got left out over winter, but looks very inviting for sitting and looking at gardens, ocean, lake or whatever view you enjoy. I like your sanded BG too. Love it all, TFS

Great card--I love how the sanded background stamp mimics the weathering of the chair. Makes me feel relaxed just looking at it!

Great card Patricia. You succeeded perfectly with the weathering on the chair. Really lovely all round. I also love how you only used 2 brads. Why do I always presume you need a brad in each corner? LOL Now I know that you don't! I will take note of this - thank you. 2 brads are just right!
