Tuesday Trigger - Val de Victorian

When I first looked at this edition of the Tuesday Trigger - Val de Victorian, open until Sunday October 28 - I didn't have any ideas. I drew out a bit of a sketch, and didn't think much about it again until I was looking for something else & saw this Basic Grey paper - ding ding!
Supplies: paper from Basic Grey "What's Up;"
sentiment from Market Street Stamps;
Memento Gray Flannel ink

I fussy-cut this element from the 'leftover' part of the patterned paper.
Here's the gorgeous inspiration pic:


I was drawn to the row of buildings. 
You've got almost a full week left to play along!
