Another armchair card; I'll probably do a million of 'em before I get tired of this stamp (or you do!) :0) I tried adding baseboard; it looked too stark and took the focus away from this teensy weensy itsy bitsy bear. ["Isty Bitsy Bear" can be found here; the armchair can be found here; Eat Cake Graphics, of course.]
The paper used on the chair is retired S.U. designer series, though the pattern "Le Jardin" (page 171) is still available in different colours. The chair's legs are water-coloured with classic chocolate chip ink. The wallpaper is Basic Grey (Pre-169 Phlordilee aged & confused Phresh & Phunky) again.
The phrase is just hand-scrawled with a black stamp'n'write marker, not sure that I'm happy with my handwriting, but what'ya'do? The wood texture is printed from a download on white cardstock (from this super-duper website.)
Thanks for lookin'

That is so sweet!! Makes me feel sad for the little bear in that great big chair!
Makes me feel sad for the little bitty bear too!
I think your handwriting looks great and until I read that is was actually your handwriting, I had assumed it was a stamp!! There you go, I always think my own handwriting looks icky, but other people say that it looks lovely ~ go figure!
Thanks guys! Yes, I feel guilty for puttin' that lil' bear there all by his lonesome.So glad that my handwriting passed for a stamp, woohoo! :0)
"Princess Matilda," I keep meaning to ask if your first name is a secret. (I know it from our emails, but it's not on your blog, so I haven't been using it.) :0) Smart to keep it off the net, Mel
