Musical Monday - Paris Dreams

I got a package this weekend

that had me digging through dusty cds. Had an urge to listen to this Cole Porter cover. (Please don't judge by the photos in this slideshow - 'twas the clearest sound I could find for sharing)

Last month while visiting the wonderful blog StarryNightImpressions I entered a random drawing.

A number of lovely items were given out. Lucky lady that I am, I won a fun Paris collage made by StarryDeb herself:

Paris by Deborah Gail

I have never been to Paris but always enjoy window shopping over at starrydeborah.etsy.com and other spots with a French vibe.


By the way, did you know that if you visit Etsy's Geolocator you can search for handmade & vintage items by seller location? There is some great stuff coming out of Paris right now!

Know what else is cool? Just found out there is a chance I may visit the City of Lights later this year. Probably will only be for a couple days & I'll be traveling with a child. If anyone has suggestions for "must-see" or places to stay, please comment. I can find my way around many places but am a newbie when it comes to France.

Marie Antoinette by Joseph Creux

Coincidentally, today's Mixed Media Monday prompt is Marie Antoinette. If you're a fan, jump over there & peruse the fun interpretations. Better yet if you have some Marie-inspired creations, pop on over & leave a link.


Back to the topic of Musical Monday, Diane is taking a break so Screaming Mimi is hosting today. Again, click through & play along if you have the time.
