I'm back..and I'm 30...

Hey there everybody! First of all thank you so much for all of your sweet birthday wishes!! You all soooo made my day!!! Such a good feeling to come back and find a mailbox full of sweet messages!!!! And yup.. I'm officially 30 now!!! Still can't believe it.. time is flying by so fast!

We've had a perfect time in France.. the weather wasn't too good unfortunately but we visited a lot of different places,we picked plums in my grand parents their backyard and rested a looooot! Such a pitty we had to leave them behind again this morning.. it's always so hard to say good bye.... Sooooo.. here's a little impression of the things we did during the last few days.. (if you ever get the chance to visit te city of Nancy or the castle and garden of Luneville for a day or so.... GO FOR IT..it's definitely worth it!)


I didn't do anything scrappy related in France (but I will soon.. I promiss.. haha..).. sooo.. I'm leaving you all today with a little card that I've created for CreativeXpress a little while ago..(you can find the first card of this card set in one of my previous posts). I was challenged to create cards by using some ProvoCraft Masking Tape.. so much fun!!!


And some details...


I'm off to do some laundry (yup.. still my favorite thing.. whahaha.. NOT)...tomorrow I'll be celebrating my birthday again with my family.. so excited!!!! (but I'll have to clean the house first.. something that is really really needed at the moment.. haha).

Enjoy the rest of your day and thanks again for stopping by!!

XOXO
Nancy
