Happy Monday!! What a way to wake up this morning...snow, snow, lots of snow :( But I'm not complaining...it was a great weekend!! My team is still alive in the NCAA Tourney!! Love March Madness :)
I have a quick card to share with you today. I've been wanting to use my new Dylusions Couture Collections stamps, so I pulled them out for this card. The dress and hat were stamped on Strathmore Watercolor paper, colored with Tim Holtz Barn Door and Fired Brick Distress Markers and a TH waterbrush, and then fussy cut.
The base of the card is black cardstock from The Paper Studio. The next two layers are Spellbinders Grand Labels 4, cut with heavyweight paper from Canvas Corp. The bottom layer was inked with TH Barn Door and Fired Brick Distress Inks. On the next layer, Paris from a Wendy Vecchi Art Classic Words stencil was inked with TH Embossing Ink and then heat embossed with Ranger clear embossing powder. It was then sponged with Old Paper, Tea Dye, Frayed Burlap and Walnut Distress Inks. The postcard stamp from the Tim Holtz Paris to London set was stamped in Old Paper across the background. Then the Fleur de Lis stamp was inked with Tea Dye and stamped randomly. The Eiffel Tower from the same set was stamped with Jet Black Versafine ink. The banner along the bottom is a Tim Holtz Tattered Banner die cut, inked with Old Paper, Tea Dye and Walnut Distress Inks.
A Spellbinders Card Creator Matting Basics A die was inked with Barn Door and Fired Brick, with Walnut around the edges. The sentiment is from the Tim Holtz Mini Classics stamp set.

The sparkles are so stylish and perfectly placed alongside this fashionista. Stunning inking, beautiful layers, and a marvelous sentiment.

Hey, Lisa! Sorry I have been MIA for a while. I missed coming by your blog. I am feeling much better now. PTL!
Love your card. The colors are so vibrant. Great shading too. Hope you stay warm and out of the snow.
Utterly fabulous, Lisa! I love Eiffel tower cards and I am glad they are still trending. Love the red dress and that fashionable lady :)
Really gorgeous and stylish, I love the shapes and layout you have used, the colour combo is really striking and the sentiment is brilliant

This French gal has it all going on, Lisa! Amazing coloring and great combo with the banner and the sentiment. I laughed when you said "quick" - this would have taken me all day and it would never have turned out so wonderful. You are an inspiration, for sure.
Love it! I am finally figuring out some different ways to use my Spellbinders. I so wish we could get together! I will just keep coming back to see what you share. I always learn something!
AWESOME job with this one too Lisa!!!it looks FANTASTIC:)
I like the sentiment on this card a lot! Fabulous stamping too. Hope it's not too terribly cold over there today :)
Beautiful Card Lisa!! I love that image and the bright red!! I could try to send you some of our heat...its in the 90s!
Tres chic!!! Love the image of the lady, and the quote is perfect for her! Putting her in Paris makes this that much sweeter! Gorgeous! Thank you for using your words with us this week here at Simon Says Stamp & Show!
So so pretty! I love the colors you used. I would have never gussed you used Tim Holtz markers and a water brush. Love the sentiment:)
Peace, Love, & Cricut Hugs!
