Theme Thursday’s challenge theme today is “Paris”.
I was just revisiting wonderful memories of a trip to Paris many years ago, when I stopped by a really neat blog, The Comforter. Check out the beautiful photos and enjoy Sophie’s writing!
I made a greeting card with a Paris feel to it using a page from a French dictionary.
“An artist has no home in Europe except in Paris.” ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
P.S. If I had it to do over, I think I would reverse the fleur de lis with the Paris postmark 
and personally, I Love ALL of Europe!

Patty, thankyou so much for mentioning me in this wonderful post! You are too sweet!
The card, as always is incredible, what a wonderful quote by Nietzsche as well.
You have made my day – my first mention!

Great quote Patty… and I think maybe I’d swap them over too. However, I’d never have amde a card half as pretty in any case – ’tis tres jolie!

Patty~
This is awesome….I love it. And the fleur de lis is the right touch…I like that placement very much. Isn’t it funny how we always think, “I would do it like this”…when it is finished. Great job!

The fleur-de-lis, the stripes and stamp, the image…you captured the French essence without the Eiffel Tower!
