Hey there! It's October, and time for a new set of Creative Crew projects over on Splitcoaststampers!

There are four challenges each month, with a total of 5 projects I have to create. My card today fulfills three challenges: Sketch, Color, and Theme!

The theme for October is "Comfy & Cozy".

Here's the sketch:

And here's the colors:

I've been dying to use the chair from the In This World set. Although a rather formal design, it still looks "comfy" to me!

I started with a Chocolate Chip card base, stamping the door, key, and "happiness"  with Crumb Cake. I tried stamping with Chocolate Chip, even stamped-off Chocolate Chip, but it was just too dark. I stamped the chair with Basic Black Archival ink, then colored with Tranquil Tide squeezed into the lid of the pad and applied with a Blender Pen. I added some floor under the chair legs with Crumb Cake. It's almost impossible to see in the picture, but I added Clear Wink of Stella to the chair frame, mainly because I didn't want to leave it bare and Chocolate Chip was too dark. I cut the chair with a Layering Circles Framelit, then matted it with Tranquil Tide cut with a scalloped circle from the Layering Circles Framelits.

I added a strip of Tranquil Tide and one of Tangerine Tango, then added a piece of Vintage Crochet Trim from the Holiday Catalog. The trim added just the right amount of softness and tied in with the Basic Black-stamped chair. The scalloped circle focal image was added with Stampin' Dimensionals.

I added stamped-off doors in Crumb Cake to the inside Whisper White layer, then stamped the In This World sentiments with Basic Black ink.

In This World is a carryover set from the last Annual Catalog. It has both masculine and feminine images. Go take a look at it and more in my online store: http://bit.ly/shopwithCarolPayneStamps
