Back in London! The train ride back yesterday was just as nice as the one over there. We had some breakfast at a café before heading to the station, Nutella Crepes and a delicious latte. Juliette picked us up from my uncle Bruce’s and we stopped at Watford Harlequin Shopping Center so Brian could pick up some things for the girls. There was a HobbyCraft there too so I had to stop in there. I was good, I didn’t get too much stuff, just things that I can’t get back at home! Today, Tracey and Jules have a little surprise for us so we are off to somewhere in a little bit! LOL!
Here are a few more pictures from Paris before we get to the card!
The glass floor on the second level at the Eiffel Tower, makes you feel a bit queasy!
The Fountain at Saint Michel.
Notre Dame.
The Louvre.
Dessert from Wednesday night!
Now on to my card for today, just a simple card! The card base is Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock. I took a piece of Solar White 80lb and drew some diagonal lines across it with a pencil so that I would more easily be able to line up my stamping and die cutting. The stamps and die are from the Hero Arts Happy Stamp & Cut Set. First I die cut the negative happy from the panel. Some Hero Arts Pool and Wet Cement Ink is used to stamp the happy and the dots. So that color behind the negative happy would match I used a Ranger Mini Ink Blending Tool and some Pool Ink to color a piece of Solar White and that is adhered to the base with SNAIL while the panel is adhered with 3M Foam Tape. Like I said, very simple card but also very mailable! I hope that you enjoyed the Paris pictures and my card for today! Thanks so much for stopping by and enjoy your Friday! 🙂

Hey Justin, more gorgeous photos! That dessert looks amazing, the coffee too! It was very restrained of you not to buy out the craft store, but I guess you need to stop and think when you have to find room for everything in your luggage! Can’t wait to hear about your surprise! Safe travels Justin 🙂 xoxo
Justin love your card! Love the pictures looks like you are having an amazing time!

Hi Justin, I am loving all your pictures. I am enjoying your vacation. I wonder what your surprise day will be? Maybe something special to celebrate you??!!

Loved the pictures! Do they still have people selling/flying those wind-up white bird toys on the Embarcadero below the Eiffel Tower?
Thanks for letting us all live through you as you travel. What is with the boxes on the street in the Louvre picture? Are they to stand on or lights?
