postcardchallenge/ France!

Japanese footbridge/ Monet's garden, Giverny
My favorite place in all of France!

    Oh, what a great way to tell about France! There's no need for written text on top of all those clippings! ♥
    The box looks wonderful! But how do you keep the cards in order? Are you going to place them on a ring or something?

    Ah... so beautiful... I wonder if Mr Monet had any idea how famous his painting would become?

    What a great idea!! Now where did I put all my postcards...need a cool box too...heading to the cigar store and hope the owner isn't there because he charges for his boxes, but his sweet assistant just gives them to me!!

    Have a great weekend, funny woman!!

    Beautiful painting.
    A cigar box was one thing I had considered to hold my cards as well but ended up going with a book.
