je m'ennuie card


Three reasons I love this card.

Reason#1: Because black and white is beautiful. I love the tonal variations on black and white pieces. Sometimes, without color to distract us, black and white shows delightful details we otherwise would have missed.

Reason #2: Because I have been inspired to cultivate my ability to create simple pieces. I tend to make everything deliciously detailed and complex. But, the truth is, sometimes simple is just better.

Reason #3: Because the Eiffel Tower image originated from a photo I took on our honeymoon. Yes, my heart flutters happily just thinking about it! Seeing the Eiffel tower was a lifelong dream fulfilled.

And because French is such a beautiful language, it looks and sounds pretty no matter what you are saying!
