PTI MIM #34

I got some time to play with some new PTI goodies yesterday so I decided to participate in this weeks MIM, which is to make thick chipboard accents by stacking thin chipbaord die cuts.
Here is my card.


 This is one of those that I like better than my original vision.  
The placement of the die cut and the je t'aime label were decided because 
I had to cover some mistakes, but I really like how it looks.
I was inspired by these labesl I found in my stash the other day.


Remember these?  They are by a company called Me and My Big Ideas (MAMBI).  Not sure if they are even around anymore.  Anyway. the package has about 5 or 6 of these little fabric labels with different words on them.  I thought I had an Eiffel Tower stamp or some paper but couldn't find anything.  Then I spotted this pack of file folders I have with Parisian pictures on them.  So I cut this vintage postcard image out of one of them.
 Then I die cut the small flower from the PTI Harvest Berries die several time and stacked them.

 I also stamped the larger flower on a spellbinders die.  Something about this makes me feel like I am looking out a hotel window in Paris with a view of the Eiffel Tower.  Ahhh, one can dream!

 
Thanks for visiting.
See you soon,
Ang

Oh my, what a lovely card. Makes me wish for springtime in Paris right now!
Lovely card. You did a great job with the chipboard. I like how you improvised when you couldn't find the stamp you thought you had. More importantly, you like how the card turned out.

Um, er...WOW! Ang! This is awesome! I think the Ginko leaves benefitted beautifully from being thinkened up by the chipboard., especially with that sugary coating. Love this rather cosmopolitan card. Such panache!
