Paris Chic

For the Make My Monday Challenge this week as the lovely Fliss has set a new theme for the month of October which is "FRANCE" and the first challenge is:-

"PARIS"


My card base is a Kraft card and I have inked my background with a mixture of Dried Marigold and Wild Honey distress inks - the stencil used is a Crafter's Workshop one.  My Eiffel Tower is from the Marianne Design Paris plate of stamps (CS0859).  This I masked before stamping the French Script.


The flourish and lady is from a set of stamps I got free with a magazine as they are Art Deco in style and the Parisiennes are known for their love of Art Deco.  The lady was coloured with Marvy markers and water.  
Little gems and white gel pen finished my card off...


If you have time please check out the MMM challenge blog - I promise it will be worth it and the standard  of work is always fabulous!  Thanks for stopping by.  Suzanne ~x~
