Please Stay

I love this image by Queen's Dresser Drawers.  It is entitled "Empty Chair."  I chose to use it for the current challenge over at Simon Says Stamp and Show where the theme is " Color."  We are to create a project using our own chosen medium to Add color.  I began with white card stock.  ( I recently gave away nearly every piece of background paper that I owned in order to move to customized backgrounds.)  Though not as brilliant as perhaps some of the other entries for this challenge, I am always amazed that a few smooshes of Rusty Hinge and Bundled Sage Distress Paint and Peeled Paint Distress Ink and some sprinkles of water can create such a lovely, soft, colorful backdrop.  The chair image was also stamped with Rusty Hinge Distress Paint for a pop of color.  The word "stay" was created with the Secretary Pool Plate by Artistic Outpost.  Tissue tape and some paper string by Idea-ology and some vintage buttons complete my card. Thanks so much for dropping by.  Yvonne
