We're going to take you on a little trip today through the countryside of Italy! This new set Dreaming of Florence, from Flourishes is a gorgeous little piece of Italian landscape and style. And it is such a rich feeling set too. I know you'll love it.
I couldn't resist using this gorgeous scene Marcella Hawley put together of the Italian countryside. It's so dreamy to me. So, I wanted to create a little sunset scene of the villas, the vineyard and the hills. I stamped the image on Flourishes Classic Ivory with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and cut it out with a Labels Eleven Spellbinders Die. Then I colored the image up first laying down some color with Copics and then adding in some depth with Prismacolors.
As you can see I've added some accents around the image with some pretty Prima Say it In Crystals in Purples, some very lovely Ivory Crochet Trim and ribbon. I believe in Italian they'd be saying "molto bella!"
