Here is another post with 2 designs using Sneak Peeks! I chose Ooh La La for this peek for you.
I love PARIS themed items. Jason and I went to Paris years ago, and it was simply gorgeous! We only had our photos developed for that trip-not on digital, which is a bummer cause they are just gorgeous, and they would fit my post here perfectly!
I love pink, gray, and black with white. Such a Froufrou color combo that fits this whimsical theme. My first sample has no pink, but the other one does.
Here is the first one
Does anyone know what that means?
I dont! But it sounds pretty!
I used by Basic Gray by SU! I am head over heels in love with that gray color. LOVE IT!
I stamped the bottom of my card base with Daisy Dots. I used the gray ink for the solid flower, and then Brilliance graphite black for the out line flower images. That is my primary black ink these days. I love it because when used with myCopic markers , it doesn’t smudge. Its also great for my acrylic stamps since its a thicker pigment ink, I never get sloppy coverage. White craft ink was used for the swirly centers of the flowers.
I also switched to using ONLY Paper Trey Ink white cardstock. Its top quality, and takes ink like a dream. Its also WHITE! I mean really white. You put it next to SU! White and the results are shocking! Plus it feels thicker-yes its possible!
I layered my images with vellum cardstock. Sometimes you want the layer to be very subtle and not overpower the images. Since I have 2 small images as my main focus, I had to keep the attention there, rather than over power them with a high contrast layer. Make sense??
Again I slanted my images (Im so stuck on this for some reason) for interest.
I added some Prima’s from Isabelle’s Secret collection. They were really perfect. More adhesive rhinestones for the centers.
The gray taffeta ribbon is a gorgeous color, and tied this card off perfectly 😀 I colored the Eiffel Tower with a Sakura glitter pen. Perfect amount of sparkle.
OK I know what this one means! LOL!
I stamped the framed image twice. Once on the card base, and the other time on the white.
Trimmed out the frame, and stamped/colored my tower. <y white singlo gel pen added some color to the corners. Another Isabelle secrets prima (looks like lace) to the corner.
Bling on the flower and tower are sweet little touches.
This would be a great card for alot of goodbye reasons! New job, taking a trip (which you could make it a ticket holder!!!) moving-whatever. Sometimes goodbye cards need to be kept “LIGHT”. Meaning not all sad or serious.
It could even be I miss you for a friend or other person in your life.
Well thats it for today. Tomorrow I have more sneak peeks.
Check HERE for a MFT peek at what’s to come on the first! I will share a container I made for the promotion soon.

Very cute! My French is pretty rusty, but I think je t’aime is ‘i love you’ – but it may just be ‘i like you’. hmmm. 🙂
Hi! I can confirm… “je t’aime” is I love you. Very pretty card.

Je t’aime is “I love you”.
These cards are so cute!! I love the pink, lback and grey together!!!
I luv these cards! Great job! I also like the tilted images…it gives the card a certain flair. I do that to some of my pictures in my scrapbooks. By the way, where do you get your adhesive rhinestones?
those are the best words..je t’aime..meaning I love you.. my 2 years of French in HS paid off…Great cards..
Well, you now have your answer for what Je t’aime means. I love some of the french words. I took french in HS many years ago. 🙂 Your card is pretty. The colors are lovely.

I love Paris too! Haven’t been yet, but the French language is such a beautiful one and I love their food! MMM Croissants!!! Wine… LOL! great cards!!!
Love the stamps and adore your cards!
Thanks for sharing your talent with us!
As they’ve already told you, je t’aime means I love you! Doesn’t everything sound beautiful in French?! By the way, totally love your cards! I have to get that set! I, too, am obsessed with everything French – visited Paris in 1986 and was packing to move there when I started dating my husband, and, well that was that. I like to tease him and tell him he “ruined” my life plan – just a joke, he’s the best!
Your cards are gorgeous! I too like pink, black, grey, and white together…stunning!
Very pretty cards! If you are thinking of a good-bye card, you will want the sentiment to be “au revoir”, which is “good-bye” in French. “Bonjour” is “hello”. It makes a nice hello card too. Here are some more thoughts: “Jusqu’à ce que nous rencontrons encore” (“until we meet again”), beautiful, but a little long. “Je vous manque” (“I miss you”). “Tu et si bel à moi” (“You are so beautiful to me”). “Je toujours vous aimerai” (“I will always love you”). You could always put a translation on the back which would be fun.
