Bonjour, Riley! {Sneakie peakie #1!}

Bonjour!  Je m'appelle Riley!  {I actually only speak about 25 words of French, lol}  I have been SO BLESSED to have visited Paris a few years ago and it was truly a 'bucket list' moment of mine that I will cherish forever.   The first time Dh and I took the kids on a tour of Europe, we made sure to include France. We stayed in Paris for 5 days and it's an absolutely enchanting city! Oh la lah!  It was also quite a hilarious leg of the trip, I can assure you ~ not speaking the language, touring with 4 kids that were 9 months old, 7, 9 and 11!  The Eifel Tower was all that I dreamed it would be and more :) Ok, Ça va! back to the card ... luckily, Riley has his cell phone and he's calling his chéri, Sophie!  I'm showing you a small snippet sneakie peakie using the new (soon to be released) Cell phone Riley from the upcoming Riley and Company new stamp release on January 26th!  Sooo much fun! 


I used the sketch from TMS#129 and I also used the awesome color combination of black, white and red (well, burgandy!) from my Faith sistah, Miss Jackie!  Thank you, sweetie!  The paper is from the My Mind's Eye mat stack Lost and Found: union square and MME chipboard letters so spell out HI :)  This lil Riley is so versatile, from our teenagers on their cellphones to us chatty, texting mommies!  The flower is one I made from a scallop punch and scrunching them to form a flower - easy breasy!


The sneaks will be here alllll week so I do hope you'll stop back by and see what's coming for this fabulous new stamp release!  And don't forget the blog hop that will be on January 26th, 10 PM EST where each blog will have a stamp winner and stamps will go on sale :) 

Thanks for stopping by today!
Au revoir!! ;)

Big hugs,
Bigger Blessings!
