Sonja is our hostess for Tickle a Teapotter this week. Find it here: MMTPT679 - July 27, 2021 - Destination ? by Cook22 at Splitcoaststampers
She's inviting us to imagine a fantasy holiday trip wherever we wish, with an SCS friend.
I hope mine likes walking - I have a list of things to do on the back on the inserts, and there is plenty of walking - it's the best way to see Paris. DH isn't great on walking because he has foot problems, but he can manage a good seven miles throughout a day without complaining too much because it's worth it.
I used the fold Sonja offered us, so extra cookies for me. Macarons, please, preferably in the cafe of Le Bon Marche.
I used suitcases on the front in memory of the time our purchases exceeded our capacity and on our last morning, we had to go to the nearby luggage shop and buy an extra suitcase . I remember packing it on the shop floor. I had bought a coat, we had a large book, the inevitable chocolate and who knows what else was causing us to overflow....
I used card from Crelando to create my folio, and added a string closure with a punched circle, an eyelet and some twine. On top of my suitcases (TH Luggage BIGZ) I added an Eiffel Tower cut from metallic card, and Paris. On the back I stamped the Paris TH Cityscape.
For the inserts, the Paris panel is a freebie from a magazine. I used SU French Script (stamped in milled lilac) on one insert, and the other two stamps are from a set by Togo that I bought in - Paris.
Stamps on the other insert are from the same set, the sitckers are Penny Black.
A real dream trip would be Norway, but I don't have the stamps to realise that even on paper. And I don't think I'll ever tire of Paris.
