In the fall of 2024 my husband and I took a wonderful trip to celebrate our 30th Anniversary to Europe, and one of our stops was Paris. One of our first nights there we wanted to see the Eiffel Tower lit up, so we took the subway to the area, and walked in the pouring rain to the site. It was truly magical when the lights came on! So, when I saw this adorable image from Rachelle Anne Miller called Paris, and it depicted the tower when it was raining, I knew I had to create with it!
I coloured up the image with Copics, adding in some extra iron work into the tower with a multiliner, and coloured it up as if the lights had just come on. To keep with the travel theme, I added in some coordinating postal stamps I had in my stash, and stamped the background with a map stamp. It gives that perfect world traveller style I was going for. I also coloured in the rain drops with a white Sharpie to define them.
Here is a picture of us in Paris that night in the rain with the glow of the lights. Isn’t it magical!? It was such a delight! We also went to see it in the day, in the sunshine, and took the elevator to the top (combining that with the stairs part of the way down). It is so much more magestic and enormous than I ever imagined.
Isn’t she the cutest? I brought back some wonderful memories too!
