Paris – Tutorial #323

dsc03591.JPG

This morning I was in the mood to create something a little different and this is what I came up with.  I found myself pulling out set after set of stamps and combined them to create this little cologe. 

Before I start the tutorial I need to announce the lucky blog candy winner who won the Stampin’ Up stamp set “Forest Friends”.

The winner is. . . . . . .. . .. . . . . .
