IC376 Eiffel Tower Merci

Photo Details

Poster: gabalot

This card is for today's IC challenge, as well as, the current CASology31 and CFC90 challenges. My card was inspired by the Big Ben (clock/time) and Eiffel Tower boxes found in World and Travel:

http://www.limogesboxcollector.com/t...orld-c-85.html

Many yrs ago, a friend of mine who is from England, while on holiday in France, purchased a gorgeous Limoges vase for me. I loved it then and now, decades later, I still treasure it.

THANK YOU FOR LOOKING! :)

Love the tiny pop of red in your image that is really highlighted by the bright red inky frame ... fantastic inspired design.

Gabby, this is a beautiful card. I love the tag stamp and the addition of the Eiffel tower. Love the red ink distressing around the edges.

I really like how you combined these images, Gabby. I'm so pleased to hear your mother is not going to have another surgery at this time, and that her attitude is doing such a turnaround. Good for all of you! Hugs, my friend.

Striking card with the hot pink/red edges and the Paris collage tag image(I have that stamp too and think it is a terrific one).

Ah, la ville d'amour! (City of Love, although I think officially it's the city of lights, isn't it? lol!) Very dramatic card, Gabby! Thanks so much for playing along with us at CASology this week!
