Mais Oui - Make My Monday is still French!

By
That's right folks we are still French over at Make My Monday and this week we want you to add a 'Fleur de Lys' to your projects - just like the one I have used in this card



On top of my Fleur de Lys background I have added the Eiffel Tower from the lovely Artistic Etchings set. I have used some Baja Breeze and Whisper White card stock to punch some Boho Blossoms and Lucky Limeade for the leaves - they have been punched using the 2 Step Bird punch. To my centres I have added a few rhinestones.
The dt have created some lovely cards for you to see over on the blog so please do pop on over to take a look.

Don't forget that I can order any of the lovely S'U products used to make this card, they are:
Stamps: Artistic Etchings.
Card Stock: Whisper White, Baja Breeze, Lucky Limeade
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Crumb Cake
Other: Boho Blossoms Punch, 2 Step Bird Punch, Rhinestones.

I am devastated - I've just watched Downton and poor Sybil has died, so sad - my husband was passing hankies to me all through it! It makes a change though from him booing and hissing every time Thomas comes on the screen!
See you soon - Jacqueline xx

    Wow this is just beautiful Jacqueline! I love the centred Eiffel Tower and the leaves and flowers around it! Who on earth could have seen that coming in Downton? We went through a fair few tissues here too! Vicky x

    This is definitely Springtime in Paris Jacqueline, beautiful card. How sad was Downton, I wonder what Tom and the baby will do now?

    I'm kind of wishing I hadn't popped here as we haven't watched Downton 4 yet having got behind! Least I have hanky warning now though.
    Gorgeous card though and the Eiffel Tower looks fabulous with the floral surround against the textured background.
    Hugs, Fliss xx

    Gorgeous CAS Jacqueline ...it's perfect. I'm a fan of Downton too and had a few tears too...I was tucked up in bed watching it there as no one else watches it in my house!

    A beautifully elegant card Jacqueline. I love the embossing folder - it's perfect for the theme! Great Eiffel Towere image with the flowers too.

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr...
