First day in France

Bonjour, and welcome to France. We had a long day yesterday but boy oh boy was it worth it....this place is totally breathtaking and inspirational.

The cottages are stunning and even the weather is lovely today....some of us went into the pool....now those of you that know me well...won't be surprised that I wasn't one of them...

Just look at the view.

We have been crafting too, and I have had a play with the new Spectrum Noir pencils and made another page for my little craft tag book. The pencils are lovely to blend and give great results....and even better you can get them on the Clarity web site...

That is all from me for now, off for a walk around the lake before our meal. Have a good evening and see you soon.

Hugs...

Jo. X

Looks beautiful Jo - look forward to seeing more pics and enjoy creating in those wonderful surroundings - most of all, relax & have fun! Take care, Carole xxx

Jo I hope you are having loads of fun and doing loads of creating. You are in such a beautiful place, it also looks so tranquil. When I go to Brittany to stay with my Aunt it is always tranquil, relaxing and very beautiful as it certainly isn't life in the fast lane.

Was that the little craft tag book you got in Glasgow?
