Inspired By #10

Time for another Inspired By challenge and I LOVE this week's challenge.  I love Paris and hope to get back there one day, for now I have to be happy with pictured of it!




So many different ways to interpret this picture: the colors (like I have); umbrellas, Paris, love (which is what Paris is all about isn't it?)...

I chose to pull out the colors and make a banner, which hangs on an old window frame above our bed.  I love to decorate for the different holidays and it was fun making something for the bedroom.  I used some old sheet music along with the Paper Hearts Collection by Crate Paper and my Art Philosophy and Plantin Schoolbook Cricut Cartridges.  It is a very simple banner and I like it!  This is for the Fantabulous Cricut challenge - heart
