Today sees the start of a brand new challenge at Sweet Stampin' Challenge where I am the Guest Designer for August. The theme for this challenge is Journeys, Travel or Destinations here is the card I made:
The image is a digi from Make It Crafty which I have coloured lightly with my Copics. The papers are Prima En Francais. The post card is a digi from Stamping Dragon which I distressed with Antique Linen DI and wrote a sentiment on with the pc. The Paris stamp is a Hero Arts rubber stamp I have had ages. Behind the image is Cheery Lynn Sophia's Heart Doily - not sure if you can see it. The image has been cut and matted using Spellbinders. The Eiffel Tower is a Dienamics die and has had the Frantage treatment. Seam binding and charm are from my stash. I must admit I really enjoyed making this, isn't it funny how some cards you enjoy making?? Here is another view:
The sponsor for this challenge is Crafty Ribbons and The Ribbon Girl is the monthly sponsor! There is also a 1000 follower candy up for grabs, have a look at the challenge for all the details!
I am slowly catching up with what I have missed this week so if I have not been round to see you yet I will be soon! I still have some DT cards to do for the next few weeks as I am going on holiday to Las Vegas with my friends on Thursday!!!! Soooooo excited! Thanks for looking and take care xxx

Love your card Susan, lovely design. Precious moments aren't they spend with our wee darlings! Had mine yesterday. Mine tired me out so don't know why I'm up at silly o'clock drinking coffee and checking out some blogs! Mine spent some time pulling my new craft room to bits. Have a great holiday when it comes.
