It reminded me of the wonderful holidays we have taken in France in recent years. The beautiful winding streets covered with cobbles, shuttered windows and of course sunshine! and it was so lovely to see photos taken in the Wintertime with holiday wreaths on the doors.
Well, guess what... I won!!! Thank you so much Jacqueline - I am so looking forward to creating with the AMAZING stamp and I can smell the lavender already - beautiful. Heartfelt thanks.
I would like to share some photos I have taken in France in recent years - and to have some sunny shots on my blog as there has been a lot of ice, snow and frost in recent times.

Dierdre, your package left on Monday, hope it arrives soon. You have made gorgeous photos, especially love the one with the big red shutters - so typical of France with the cobblestones! It is a beautiful country, some parts are so close to nature!
Hope you enjoy what I sent you!
Thanks for including me in your blog entry.
Jacqueline
Absolutely gorgeous, isn't Jacqueline so nice and her work is marvelous! My niece and family visited France while she did an intern over there and she raved about it!! It was her favorite country out of all the places she has visited!

Such beautiful photos, Deirdre. I have never been to France either, but I know from my Art History classes that it is a country rich in design. I would love to go there some day too!
Congrats on winning... I also won something little according to Jacqueline...can't wait. Your photos of France are wonderful.. I can't wait till late August...that's when Hubby and I will be in Paris... We are spending a week canal boating in England then onto Paris for 5 days, Venice for 5 days and then to Rome before heading home.... it just seems such a long time to wait!!!!
