Eiffel Tower

I currently love everything Eiffel Tower.  Not sure why, I have no great desire to travel to Paris (but I would NOT turn down a chance to go!).  And no plans anytime soon.  But I am intrigued by the image and it catches my eye wherever it is.
I got this fun stamp set that feeds my love of the Eiffel Tower and has alot of possibilities for creating stuff with an Eiffel Tower theme.  Here's what the stamp set looks like -
 And here the tag set I made using some of them -
Below is the 3 separate pieces before I tied them together with 3 strands of ribbon. 
The largest tag is a kraft tag, the middle is a manilla tag, and the smallest is a strip cut from a 12x12 sheet of scrapbook paper that has Eiffel Tower postoids on it.  You can see I also used one of the postoids from that same paper on each of the other tags.  I sprayed all the tags with my very favorite spray, Lindy's Stamp Gang Starburst Saxifrage Olive Copper - you can find it HERE.  Then stamped the images with VersaFine ink.  I added some charms I had to the little strip of postoids (the Eiffel Tower charm I had was the exact same size as the image on the paper - how cool is that!).
I'm really happy with how it turned out!
Now I need to get a couple more Christmas things made so I can play some more with this stamp set!
Hope you all are having a creative weekend!
Happy Holidays!
