Hi! Today Steph sent us to Anthropologie for our inspiration challenge. Cool place! And of course I chose this ~ http://search.anthropologie.com/?q=f...national=false
I combined stamps from several sources. Then I distressed and sponged each piece with PTI Chai Ink. I used the Word Window Punch to make a pouch for my tea dyed tag with the eiffel tower charm. I used to make these pouches a long time ago when I first started scrapbooking but the punch made it easier. (I saw this in Just Cards magazine ~ a card done by Sonja Turner)I had fun making this card but made a mess and don`t know who to send it to! LOL Thanks for looking and have a great Saturday! I may have to make another one. :-)

WOW, what a fabulously charming vintage creation! I wish I could create vintage even half as well. Wonderful!

Wow -I never saw that Ferris Wheel. Your card caught my eye instantly, because DH just got a book of origami architecture and one of the designs is the London Eye. We've never seen that, but we saw the big Ferris wheel in Paris several times before they took it down - and your little Tour Eiffel charm just makes me think of all the Africans trying to sell souvenir models! Impossible to avoid them; they have loads of them strung on something like a big book ring, and they go jingle jangle. What a very evocative card this is for me. And look at the beautiful coordinated envelope!
