Tickets to Paris

Bonjour!
I discovered some of this lovely paper in my stash and decided to create a 'ticket' card.
The bottom section is deeply embossed and some Labels One die cuts are tucked 
behind to represent some 'tickets'.
Some pearl swirls add a pretty touch and Ribbon Tags Trio Three is perfect for the sentiment.
Just a touch of distress ink and a base of brown cardstock completes the look.
Without the pearls it would adapt to a masculine card.
I've made so many cards recently but I've enjoyed that each seem so different,
I start off with an idea but it rarely turns out exactly what I had in mind..does this happen to you?
Take care now and please stop by again soon.

    I am just watching Ideal World and realise who the Spellbiders' lady is: Christine from 'Hopes & Chances'. I have recently subscribed to your blog and love your work. It is so much my taste & style....and I adore Spellbinders.

    Hi Christine,
    May I say you did a fabulous job on IW and C&C. I watched and recorded your shows so I can make sure I didn't miss anything as I am always doing two things at a time.
    Love todays card and thought it looked really good when I saw it on the show.
    Hope you enjoyed yourself. All the best for the final round, please let us know as soon as you know.
    Linda
