Sugar Lump Studios

Art by Nancy Maxwell James

{We’ll Always Have Paris}

April 13, 2008

This weeks theme at Gothic Arches is to create an arch with the challenge being “We’ll Always Have Paris”…I racked my brain trying to think of something for the challenge, and finally came across a sweet little french girl from a vintage photo on Nancy Dooren’s blog and mixed it with some vintage ephemera of Paris and rubber stamps (Hero Arts)…I have never been to Paris but it is on my list of places to see oneday! :)

    Oh, she's lovely, Nancy, and so French. You will simply have to go to Paris soon and soak it up. It's a place like no other!
