Bonjour!
What a great month of challenges over at Make My Monday! This week, the theme is to include Fleur de Lys in our project. I decided to ink up this "Arc de Triomph" stamp, by Stampsmith, for the first time. After distressing with Vintage Photo Distress Ink, it was layered over a black doily. A portion of a map of Paris, also by Stampsmith was stamped, distressed, and tucked under the main image. The sentiments were stamped, distressed, matted and layered to the card front. Torn portions of a French text were distressed and added next. A "Fleur de Lys" stamp, by Inkadinkado, was stamped several times, trimmed, water colored with Rusty Hinge DI and mounted to the card front with pop dots. Copper Liquid Pearls and a red, white and blue ribbon complete my card. Thanks so much for all your faithful visits to my blog. I truly appreciate each one of you. Best wishes, Yvonne
