Paris................

how I saw it ( this time ).......
I love Paris.......
this time I was overwhelmed by
the humidity
YUK.......
must be old age!!...
so here are snap shots of what
I found interesting
or comical
beware
there are no landscape pics
of pretty buildings
or cheesy pics
of me in front
of said buildings
just what I thought
was
Paris.......
Breakfast of course....
many hours were spent here
the metro....
Paris has a brilliant Metro system
the trains are fast
and on time
but
you have to walk
and walk
and walk
and walk
you get the idea
to surface
and behold
this
beautiful Art Nouveau
metro signs
Can't remember why

time for a shot of coffee

the cheese that was waiting
for me
with an added bonus
of chanpagne
the scary looking cats/beasts
you choose...
hanging off the Notre Dame
Berthillion ice cream
36 flavours
to die for....
this was sad
but sweet at the same time
Okay so one
pretty building
rather plain actually
it was the small row of
pretty flowers
that caught my eye.

Far away from home.....

This layout is for the World cup extra challenge on the Studio challenge blog.......
We were to use Zakumi (the mascot for the World Cup) as our muse........
I used his colours as they remind me of the colours of Australia...............
where I was born and grew up............
and where my parents and brother live........
plus I always wanted to scrap this photo of my parents whom I miss very much...


The picket fence and tree are chipboard die cuts from Sfragidomania..............
which I just dressed with paper................
Later..................

Friendships.....

These two make me so happy when they are together.......
They fight.....
They call each other names....
They sulk.......
They jump up for joy just hearing each others names...
They hug each other......
They never want to part......
They plan to buy houses next door to each other....
They plan to have their children play together....
They are friends............
This layout is for the studio challenge July....
Later.....................
