Crepe is a French word, you know.

So what in the heck does that title mean?  Well, I am totally in love with this Vintage Traveler set from Our Craft Lounge.  Especially the Eiffel Tower.  It's French, you know.  So using crepe paper as an embellishment just makes sense, right?  You know…crepe…French…well, I thought so!

I used the Cuttlebug Heritage folder set again on basic gray paper, then sponged over the scrollwork with black ink.  I added 2 layers of scalloped ovals, then the image stamped on light gray cardstock.  I used a couple of Copics to shade the Eiffel Tower and the RV17 to color the rhinestone.

All I did for the embellishment was cut a strip of crepe paper, both ends angled, and scrunched it together in the middle.  It was inserted between the brad prongs which were then punched through the gray layer.  That’s it!

I’m so glad you stopped by today.  It’s almost the weekend!!   YAY!!

Oh, and speaking of weekends…..last weekend I was in the NC mountains, driving down the Blue Ridge Parkway and stopping to see several waterfalls.  What a relaxing and fun time!  Here are a couple of the highlights:

I think the natural and biological sources of vitamins and minerals are best compared with other packaging and plastic products. Always try to push things you need in your home. It is not only going to be cheaper, but it will be much more beneficial to your health and your family.
