Evening in Paris

When I came across a package of Antique tiny photographs of the Eiffel Tower, I had no idea how it would inspire me on Photoshop. I started with my own background using brushes of a favorite roses photograph of mine.



So there I was enlarging this tiny photograph and erasing the background. Well, one thing led to another...



I found an overlay of a glitter image which I purchased for commercial use. Then I erased bits of the chandelier I designed. When I placed my chandelier over the glitter image, it was shining through looking like the lights were lit.



After I printed out the image, I had to add a bit of glass glitter.



The next thing I knew I was assembling cards with grosgrain ribbon and matching card stock.



Inside I put a stationery set to write a nice long note, or maybe tuck some tickets inside for someone special.



I created an Etsy commercial on YouTube. You might want to turn the sound down on the video if you want to watch it, so you can listen to lovely I Love Paris.



Creating greeting cards has always been a favorite pastime. Using glitter and ribbon....the best! I decided I am going to use my Lollishop for greeting cards. I also listed Evening in Paris on Etsy.

The song for this post is I Love Paris.



Each one is a one-of-a-kind hand-made card. I still have a stack of different color combinations that I am working on. I sent a few to some friends who love Paris, and my sisters of course. What is your favorite crafting project?
