We Will Always Have Paris

Hi there,

It's almost the weekend and I'm sneaking in with a quick post to share a journal page that I've made for this month's challenge over at Country View Challenges.  Their theme this time is 'We Will Always Have Paris.' Now I had to think long and hard about this one and as I don't have many Parisian stamps, so I decided to make a background and use the ones that I had. Here's what I've made:


Most of the background stamps are by Inkylicious, the Paris sentiment is by Stampedous, the Eiffel Tower is by Crafty Individuals and the gorgeous lady is one of Time Holtz Runway Girls.  If you're reading this Viv, then thank you very much for letting your girls have a holiday with Auntie Sandra x

That's all from me for today but I'll be back with you all on Sunday morning to share another card that I've recently made, so until then, I hope that you all have a lovely weekend, in spite of the weather xx

I'd also like to add this card into the following challenges:

Oh Sandra, this is so beautiful! I am so hoping that restrictions lift by September - we have cancelled three trips to Paris since last year - the hotel have set a limit to us re-booking to the end of October!
The background here is perfect for your runway girl. Thank you so much for joining us at Try It On Tuesday, Chrisx
