Oh the Horchow catalog...brings back many memories of this 'wishing' book for adults! They have outrageously fun stuff!!! Thanks Audrie and Stef for getting us in the mood tonight. And to those that know me well, of course it was the chairs I couldn't resist!!! I think I saw no less than half a dozen chairs, I'd love to acquire...but having the room for them would mean a larger house. It was this sinuous beauty that caught my eye. I love the curves, the color, and the texture.
I cut my chair from a magazine feature, wallpapered my card front with one of the larger Basic Grey Wisteria papers, added a baseboard with the Tim Holtz harlequin tissue tape. The pillow contains the sentiment, 'Scatter Joy'. And I was in the process of scattering joy with the tiny floral brads off to the right of the chair.
Hope everyone is finding joy everywhere they go...don't save it, but scatter freely! Thanks so much for stopping by.

That chair looks sooo real, Susan! I actually thought the "Scatter Joy" was your card and you were displaying it on the chair. Wow, so real looking! You have such a unique style and are consistent in all your card messages....scatter joy is something you do so well!

Talk about "outstanding"....I thought your thumbnail was a photo of your card sitting in a modern chair....only to find out the whole scene was your card.....AMAZING.
