Paris Collage Card

Hi everyone!
Today I want to share a collage card with you called Paris.

The base card is epic black in neenah linen cardstock (my favorite black of all time!).  I matted a gold glossy to my base card which was embossed. 

The three pieces of glittered embellishment were actually cut form a scrapbook paper from DCWV.  They were actually from one design.  I cut them apart and layered them with the Pris picture layered with mounting tape.


Close Up!

I love the stick pin accents here.  I used mounting tape behind the Paris picture so all I had to do was to stick the pins in the mounting tape.  Works perfectly! 
I used a dusty rose satin ribbon to accent which coordinates with the pink roses in the lower left.


I added a gold edging to the Paris card.  Because the entire piece is glittered, the gold shows off the rough edges giving it kind of a faux foil look.  I also like the way it is a mat looking gold which contrasts with the shiny gold mat behind it.



Here you can see a clearer picture of the gold edging and also the pink roses.

Lope you liked my Paris card!  Come back for more card ideas and inspiration!
