Hi! This card was made for today's Ways to Use It Challenge: Around the World.
When I saw the challenge, my mind lept back in time to the European trips my FIL and I used to make together. I remember walking through very small villages in Italy, pushing his wheel chair along dirt roads. I met MANY of my oldest son's relatives. It was such a magical time. I used this image to deplict one of our morning "walks." Please note, this trip was OVER 20 years ago! LOL (And, to the left, their was an olive grove!)
The image was stamped on Wonderful Watercolor paper and colored with Copic Markers. The background was embossed with an Impressabilities from Spellinders.

Just beautiful. It's great to make a card that's inspired by a wonderful memory.

Faith, I just have to comment on this card. You are the reason I purchased this gorgeous set of images. I hope I can make something half as beautiful as this. Your story just tops it off. I hope to go to Italy this year, it is my dream.
