Yes, it's a perfect world and these gals have finally made it to Italy for a Sightseeing / Shopping excursion extraordinaire! Selfies will capture the moments that will become memories . . .
I pulled out this Mediterranian street scene that I had stamped at a friends house quite a few years ago. For some reason it was on glossy cardstock - oops - a little experimenting and I discover the only way to color it was with reinkers (and they dried about 6 shades lighter than they do on regular cardstock) The gals selfie was on regular cardstock and colored with prismacolor pencils . I die cut both images with my deckle edged dies and framed them with midnight glitter. The words were fussy cut. Attached the street scene directly to the card base and raised up the smaller elements with mounting foam.

It is so fun to see someone who mixes different stamps from different companies together like I like to do. You did such a great job of doing it with this cute design and so perfect for the challenge.

Linda, I absolutely love this!! Beautifully colored and a wonderful layout. The AI selfie is perfect with the travel words and Italian street scene. FYI, in addition to the reinkers, water based markers work on glossy paper.

So fun!!!!! The memories and travel idea remind me of our recent conversations - you just need to change out this street for one with chilies hanging and some adobe. This is super pretty and so well done, Linda. Love it! Hugz

LOL - love this!!! Such a perfect fun card full of memories!!! Love your coloring even though you had quite a time with coloring on the glossy paper... makes me want to pull out this set and play with it myself on glossy. Also your finishing touch on the pics is so nostalgic... brings tears to eyes.
