We often spot the Eiffel Tower from various places around the city although it isn't often we get very close to it!
My journal page started as my pages often do with some mop up ink from a tag I made(that's for another day!)
I used a variety of stencils, That's Crafty hearts, Dylusions and TCW and a Sarah Naumann Paper Artsy stamp!
I used my new favourite stamp from Crafty Individuals by Ellie Hargreaves and then reached for an image, there were no appropriate paper dolls so I looked through some old papers (so old I can't remember whose they are!) and found these cute birds that are looking upwards towards the Lin Brown quote and the tower!

The love of Paris what is more beautiful than the memory from your vacation trips there. A wonderful designing page, the joy will be great when it's time to be there again!
greetings Elke
Those mop up pages work well for you, Chris. I'm delighted to see all those stencils you used. I have a bit of stencil envy. Your love of Paris shines through and the Eiffel Tower is so iconic, you don't need to name the city. I'm really loving this and am delighted you shared this with us at Art Journal Journey.
Simply gorgeous!
Happy
Valentine's Day!♥♥♥

Lucky you, going to Paris so many times. I have never been but dream of it. Your page is so pretty with the combination of soft colors and black and I totally love your mix of stamps and stencils. Very well done and inspiring.
This is a super page Chris. I love the French feel, and then how you added those sweet birds. Oh I have had the urge to visit Paris lately. Thanks for taking me there with that page. And also for linking up to AJJ too. Hugs-Erika
Beautiful page! I bet your looking forward to your travels again this year and what fun trying to spot the Eiffel Tower from different places 😀. I'm loving your stenciling and stamps and those little birds look adorable. I hope you're having a lovely week and wishing you a happy weekend! Hugs, Jo x

Oh Chris how wonderful to have you playing along with us for this challenge. I love that you've kept the hearts so subtle in the background and carefully layered each element around the Eiffel Tower. Thank you for sharing with us at The Funkie Junkie Boutique blog xx
