In 2002, my mom asked if I wanted to go with her on a trip & handed me a brochure - it was to Paris! Or course I said yes. We were there March 8 - March 16. I can still close my eyes & see Paris & looking up at the Eiffel Tower. At night all the attractions are lit up. That is a photo I took of the Eiffel Tower. I knew just what die I would use, the hard part was what else!
Otherwise this was a pretty easy card. The die cut is from MFT & I did cut it down.
What a wonderful walk down memory lane.
And, yes, we went to the top (by packed elevator), but during daytime!
Thanks for stopping by.

I know well your love for Paris my dear friend! This is wonderful. I love we've shared that Paris thing through our art. Perhaps one day we can have an artful trip back...your card with the French script in the 'night' and that wow city scene. We just need Norte Dame restored.

Oh i love your interpretation of the challenge. How amazing it must have been to look up and see the tower all lit up. I love historical fiction and I have read several boojjs about building that tower. Your card really captures the feeling of Paris at night. Lovely colors.

Ahhh we will always have Paris.... (well not you and me, but you know what I mean). Karen what a perfect way to capture a beautiful memory on a card. Thanks for joining in the challenge and for sharing your card and story.
