Spring in Paris "Sketch #3"

Can you show me your cards made with Magnolia's Eiffel tower??? This is my second card using this cool stamp. If you have a card made with an other Paris or french inspired stamp its fine too - post the link of your creation here on this post. So we can all take a look at your card. If you like you can also make a card using the sketch. If you go with the sketch you can use of course ANY kind of your stamps - just stick with the placement of the 2 motifs (thats my challenge for you). You can add your sentiment were you want. Also, link your card here on my blog.

I used the "Merci" stamp from Stampin up "Carte Postale" to stamp on my epoxy tag i picked up at the tiny craft section in my grocery store. Don't know if you can see it but the tag has some tiny daisies like the DP. Was pretty happy about the match. The two fabulous pink ribbons on this card is from Rasperry Ribbons - the store has its online doors open now for you. I asked Caroline, for how long the pink ribbon kits will be available -cause i really, really love mine and i am actually thinking to purchase one more. She told me that the pink ones will be only available as long there is supply, after that there will be an other color for sale. Rasberry ribbons will also ship to the US.

Sentiment: Stampin up "Carte Postale"
Embellishments: Ribbons: "Rasberry Ribbons"
Epoxy Tag, Bashful Blue brads Stampin up, Stickles
Paper/CS: Imaginice (all scraps from the stash), Bashful blue, Whisper White
Coloring: Copics, white gel pen, Prisma Color Pencils on the tower
Add. info: distressing and sweing

Here is the sketch for you to try:
