When I Grow Up

When I grow up – I want to be ME!!!! I like being me :) Grown ups are always so sad and so prim and proper :(

paris

Paris – I used to live there (dans la banlieue pour ceux qui parlent français) and it has a special place in my heart :)

This one is big – 22.5cm tall! I bought the stamp at a Stamp Show in California a few years ago and this is the first time I’ve used it. I LOVE the French version of the Paperartsy Paris sheet – Paris sera toujours Paris – heureusement!

Yes I used to live there too and it has a special place in my heart too. I also love the PA french versions but I think they are mega expensive so if you find them at a reasonable price please let me know. thanks.Karen

Gorgeous cards love the colours. I'm very impressed with the french (don't know what it says). French was the only "o" level I failed!
