I decided to attempt the Sunday Sketch over at CPS. I decided to go with the travel theme!
This is my “Bonjour From Paris” post card.
I used my Sizzix post card die cut to make a “postcard”.
This is a view of the postcard-close up
I decided to flip the sketch on to the side. So my postcard is the panel-slanted.
Instead of the 4th square, I placed the heart tag from Making Memories tag rims.
The images at the bottom are suppose to be like “stamps”, that I made using a hole punch, and some square punches.
Isn’t this cute? I was SO HAPPY with it! I love PARIS themed stuff so Oh La La was PERFECT for this idea. I also used Simply Sentiments, and L’Amour. All found at Lizzie Anne.
The paper is by DCWV-its a glitterfied paper, that is really pretty! I used Pixie Pink for the pink accent color. My Sakura Glitter pen colored the items and added some sparkle with out going overboard!
The ribbon is by Autumn leaves, and the whimsical swirl and flower was perfect for the style of the set.
I hope they like my submission! You can never go wrong with pink & black 😀

Just gorgeous.
Funny how I have been thinking about faux postage and it starts popping up. I have never tried it, but I want to ;^)* Now I have a nice inspiration and excuse.
Great idea to use the hole punch to get those cool stamp edges, and I thought you needed decorative scissors! Duh!
That is so clever! I am in love with how you made those stamps. What a great idea!! I’ll have to borrow that one to make a few for myself.
Great card!
This is a truly inspired card. Not only do I love pink, black and white together, but your project is so well photographed. Great job!

Lauren,
These cards are WONDERFUL! Your work is awesome. I decided to give this sketch a try and I loaded it to my blog. I like this sketch I think I need to try another one, the one I did I used black in the background which was a little too much. Oh well, can always try again 🙂
