Well, this was an easy one for me since my mother was mostly French. The hard choice was where to start. In the end I took my inspiration from two images in the video - there was an older couple, with the woman holding a posy of flowers, and there was a silhouette of a couple against a night sky. I recreated the night sky for my Eiffel Tower silhouette, and added a sprig of lavender. The background is embossed with a Darice compass ef. The Eiffel Tower die is from Dovecraft. The lavender is Joanna Sheen. I haven't added a sentiment but I might before I mail it after work. DH liked this a lot, so I'm hoping it works as a masculine card.

Beautiful nighttime Parisian sky behind the Eiffel Tower, so pretty! Love the combined textures of the frame, embossing folder and the Lavender, which in itself is a beautiful touch. Very lovely romantic, yet masculine card.

This is stunningly beautiful, Sabrina, wow! I love how you did Paris at night, and the frame and ef both emphasize your lovely Eiffel Tower image. I also like the sprig of lavender at the corner - it's what I associate France with really - french lavender, specially in milled soaps!
