Project Life ~ Rome {part 1}
Hi Friends! I am continuing on with our trip from 2014 & today we are in Rome! Our family loves to travel and Rome is one of the places we absolutely LOVE! The rich history is laid out right before your eyes, the food is delicious and abundant, and the Italian culture is like none other. We have been fortunate enough to have been to Rome on three different occasions, and it really is a place I can see us returning to again some day. {Click on the pages below to read the journaling}
Our favorite outdoor market!
Our home away from home...
I'll be back tomorrow with Rome ~ Part 2!

Gina K Inspiration Hop!
Hi there friends! I have a new Gina K Designs tutorial to share; however, this time, I'm using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers on my project along with the new stamp set called We Go Together.
Step 1: Stamp the images using Black Staz On ink and watercolor paper. Trim the images with scissors.
Step 2: Select a darker shade of pink (I used Peach Pink) and add color directly from marker to watercolor paper around the edges of the doughnut.
Step 3: Next, add a lighter shade of pink (Sugared Almond Pink) to the inside areas of the image. Leave some white space for shading.
Step 4: Using a waterbrush, blend the two shades of pink together.
Step 5: For the coffee cup image, add Sugared Almond Pink to both edges of the coffee wrapper and blend with a water brush.
Step 6: Trim the wrapper and attach it to the coffee cup stamped on Kraft.
Step 7: Stamp a background using the Tiny Textures Stamp Set and Kraft ink. Add both images to the card and then add glitter to the watercolored areas.
A close up of the colored images.
I hope you find some sparkle in your day today!

In the Dog House!
Isn't it fun when we get sweet little cards from our four-legged fur babies? My husband always gives me cards from the dogs and I love it! I made this card with that in mind using the Tanner Stamp & Die Combo set from the adorable Pawsitively Purrfect by Taylored Expressions.
In addition to this super cute stamp set, I used the new Build A Doghouse die set, the Frame in Frame 2 Cutting Plate, Picket Fence Border and Build A Scene - Rolling Hills to create this fun backyard scene.
Have A Fabulous Day!

HANDS DOWN... THE BEST GELATO IN THE WORLD!
{Funny story... My daughter and I tracked down this place again last year, because we loved it that much. We didn't even have the address, we just knew a general location}
I hope you enjoyed my little tour of Florence!
