The challenge was to make a card inspired by Paris, and to also use the #@$# view master technique.
So I am not in love with the view master!!! This card took me an hour and 10 minutes. I had to do the inside circle 3 times, and I'm still not happy with it. And I also have a hard time figuring out what would be good to put in the openings, because you can only see one at a time. So, no love from me with this one... I guess you could say that I wasn't lucky in Vegas this time!!
TFL!!

This card is fabulous!!! I decided to skip the last two challenges last night--they seemed too complicated to get done in 45 minutes. You did a great job, though--maybe I should rethink! Thanks for sharing your wonderful creation!

Oh but it's soooo cool! I have a question about the Viewmaster...what are the notches for? I haven't figured that one out yet, and finally omitted mine...I think I will take a poll when I leave comments, hee!

I love what you did with your card, even if it isn't a viewmaster! I love the Paris you made. One of these days I'll try this technique, but I couldn't figure out how the three parts of cardstock all fit together, so I was out of the running before I even started!

I think it turned out well I love the colours and that you used an oval shape for the view part...sry it was such a frustrating process for you....I found that using just about the biggest circle I could fit in the card was the key for my sucess but judging by all the comments on this card I'd say you won in Vegas this time ;)

This is absolutely gorgeous! (I am a sucker for that b/w/r cc.)
Eh, so what if it took you a bit longer than you hoped. I'm glad you stuck with it, because it is a very stunning card. TFS
