"Cities Of The World" is the challenge theme at Fashionable Stamping Challenges. If you need a little inspiration, click right HERE to see what my fabulous DT Sisters have created. Come on and join in, pull out those "City" type stamps and get all inky with the FSC gang! Don't forget there is always a chance that you will win a little goodie from Marina's Cottage Crafts.
Since this is also going to visit Simon Says Stamp and Show a Kaleidoscope of Colour, I pulled out a nice assortment of colors in Distress Inks and Markers! The stamps I used are Tim's and the mini Paris tag is from Invoke, which I came across at the Carson Convention. I thought it worked quite well with Tim's stamps! For the background stamp, I swiped several colors of Distress Inks directly from the pad to the stamp. Once I stamped this on my white card stock, I added clear embossing powder and then heat set. Distressed this with Antique Linen and Vintage Photo. The sign and mini tag, I colored with my new Distress Markers and also clear embossed and then added Distress Inks for more color. Both of these were cut using deckled scissors for a little extra interest. Added a little piece of lace (can you see it, Lynne) and a tiny flower! The little butterfly was an Easter Basket goodie from my Hubby!
I can't wait to see what you come up with for "Any Capital City" and you have two weeks, so come on and join in! Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you will have a wonderful weekend!

Your card looks fantastic! I love your blended colors on your background and how you then heat embossed everything using clear embossing powder! Beautiful colors. Beautiful distressing. Beautiful design. Love it all! Thanks for joining us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy
Fantastic Paris collage, the background looks wonderful.
Hi Terry, you have really outdone yourself with this one!!! just gorgeous! Love the inking and resist and more inking for the background, and then the layers and embellies really round it all off. And, sorry if I sound a little odd, but I really like the yellow matting around the outside...it makes a really beautiful frame that picks up all the gorgeous colours.

LOL Terry you do make me laugh, of course I spied the lace. Surely you didn't think I would let you down!!!!
Stunning colours and of course I love your choice of city. Didn't we have a wonderful time, taking in the sights, eating macaroons (I had pink you had green)and those amazing Flea Market finds, such treasures. That fertile imagination of mine will get me into trouble one of those days!!!
Gorgeous, gorgeous card.
