Bonjour Paris!

We are visiting France this month at Make My Monday, so there are going to be lots of French inspired things around.

Fliss has chosen this theme, and our first outing is Paris.  It's a long time since I visited - we always seem to bypass it when driving - but have fond memories of it - both work and play.

My card is a mixture of stamps from various companies, and show some iconic images of Paris.  This is also reflected in the label matted on the front.

There are some fabulous piece of work from the team and our special guest, Julia,  at Make My Monday, so please pop across to have a browse.

I really appreciate it that you take the time to look at my blog and leave such lovely comments. Thank you each and every one of you. Hugs,

Vintage Travel

Good morning everybody

At least I hope it is, but this is a scheduled post, so you never know, what it is likely to be.  The rain scuppered all my plans for Sunday, and the road outside was like a river.

At Make My Monday this week, everybody is on their travels - Vintage style.  So cars, bikes, balloons, steam trains, sailing ships - the choice is yours - just make sure it has a vintage flavour.

I have used a combination of stamps for my card.  I used distress ink on the background, and overstamped just to give a bit of interest in some lines, and then script.  The car image is Crafty Individuals, and the lady sitting at the side is a favourite B Line stamp called Stylish Traveller.   All the main stamping is done with Stampin Up Expresso.

Please pop across to Make My Monday.  As usual, the team have come up with some brilliant pieces of work for your inspiration.
