I always love pictures with rows of little houses and there are houses there. I had way too many interruptions so my card sort of evolved in hiccups. I ended up with a see through girl from the past walking the streets of somewhere romantic and far away selling flowers, and she has her kitten along for company.
Sentiment is Hero Arts. Date Stamp is Clear Stamps, Girl is Stampland and houses are Art Impressions. I like it.

This is a wonderful card. It makes me think of the houses in the town I lived in when we were in Germany. Thanks for bringing back wonderful memories for me! TFS

what power we have in our art, as evidenced by Patty's remarks! That's a very sweet li'l box and I love what you fashioned around it. I also like the bit you said about it grew in hiccups...smile

You say Paris - I see somewhere like St. Ives in Cornwall with all the houses along the seafront - it must be your sandy-coloured foreground and the wonderful blues. And the slope of the houses - goodness, Cornwall was hilly!

That girl sort of reminds me of the girl in Les Miz....and she looks great in front of those row houses..what a wonderful stamp that is. Wonderful vintage, collage-y card!

This is clever and very pretty too. I love the vintage girl in front, against all those houses in the bg. I like the way the blues blend in as the sky. Very nice!
