...good afternoon...and where might I be finding you?
...it is absolutely good to be back inside in a warm home!....not that I do not like the crisp, dry cold, but -7C° as a highest temperature is not exactly something I'm totally used to...
So you are finding me home, writing these lines, while dinner is getting cooked (chicken legs with peppers in the pan and rice)
and I have a suggestion to make...would you like to take a look?
How about Christmas in Paris?
....wouldn't that be a nice choice?
...well, Santa has actually already passed by our door and left us a ticket there!
Trully!
....now no need to get envious, because he insisted that it is to be offered to all the lovely people who read these pages....

I am....and actually Santa was very kind with me as well, as he left me a little package filled with lovelyness this moring.
What?...a "sous-tasse" in blue and red and a "tasse" in blue and red, too.

Oh my, what a fabulous giveaway! There are so many beautiful prints that it is hard to choose. Of course I am drawn to the "Petit Beurre" and "Madeleine" prints as they are two of my favorite childhood treats from my summers in France with my grandparents. I would love to have the chance to win those. I have just the place for them in my kitchen!

Hello Ivy and Anne,
ReplyDeleteI have recently purchased French Carousel as a Christmas gift for my daughter Phoebe who would love to travel to Paris. I am going to choose EAT PRAY LOVE as the next print as that is what she is reading at the moment.

Could her photography be any more romantic? Don't think so. I'm absolutely in love with the French Mailbox image. Could design a room around that one print. Thanks for the great giveaway!

Thanks, Iro and Anne, for the chance. I love Anne's shop! If I won it would be difficult to choose between After the rain in Paris (No 1) and Pink French Car, South of France! Decisions, decisions! :)

Hi Ivy, I am new to your blog, but I had already found Anne's MaGallerie before! I think her photography is heavenly. She has a way with her camera for sure! Just yesterday in french class I was telling everyone about the photo with the pink truck in front of the blue shuttered window. That's the photo I want if I win! I think it is titled "rose truck in the south of france" or something like that!
ReplyDeleteYou can reach me at hermanmary21@yahoo.com, if I win! Here's hoping...
Love this one! http://www.etsy.com/listing/60274446/silver-eiffel-tower-paris-france-8-x-10

That is a lovely give away Iro! As I already have two of her wonderful prints over at my house (am I becoming a collector?) I would chose the French Carousel because these colours make me so happy and so remind me of Paris. I wakes up the child in me!
