Oldest patisserie in Paris

Today, I have a layout showing our visit to Patisserie Stohrer, the old patisserie in Paris.  
We had read about this patisserie before we left Australia and of course just had to have a visit. It is notable as the founder Nicolas Stohrer (who was offical baker of King Stanislaus of Poland, before moving to Paris) created the Baba au rhum - or as we know it Rum Baba.
I have used Make it Monday 51 Sketch from The Memory Nest - why not head over and check it out.
It has been wet for a couple of days here in Sydney, so just the weather to get scrapbooking. Thanks for looking, Margaret :)

January Cyberchallenge - punched flowers.

Image
Images:(c)1990-2010 Stampin'Up(r) Artwork:Margaret L Crawford Our INKlings cyberchallenges have began for 2010. Tonight our leader, Jayne is setting the challenges. Our first challenge is to use SU punches to make a paper flower and use it on a card, scrapbook page or 3D item. I have used the round scallop punch (each flower has 3 punched scallops), cut a small way into each scallop and then pushed back to create a 3-D effect then I added a rhinestone brad to the centre of each flower. I used my markers to colour the leaves and then spritzed with water before adding to card. Challenge 1 completed.

Here is another layout I have created recently.  I have decided to post it for a challenge at ARTastic - I hope they allow more than one entry as I have already done one layout for their May challenge - Scrap the Girls. This photo was taken when I met up with friends that I attended TAFE with many years ago.  We completed the Advanced Needlecraft Certificate at Hornsby TAFE and became firm friends during this time.   But as life goes on we lost contact - until Facebook got us back together 20 years later!..  They caught the train up and we had lunch and much catch up at my home before a walk on the beach.   Again here is the inspiration photo at ARTastic, the criteria Girls Only. I was further inspired by a layout by Emily Pitt found on   Debbie Hodge  from 2013 that I found whilst blog surfing. Thank you Debbie I have left some thanks for you on your blog. Thank you for looking, Margaret.
