Italy Scrapbook Pages
These two pages are a small tribute to my husband's late grandparents, Tom & Marie Lombardozzi. At the age of 17, they made their way from Florentine, Italy to the USA and settled in Rockford, Illinois where they had three children, a beautiful vegetable garden and many happy years together.

The book that I am putting together to honor, not only Tom and Marie, but many family members and friends along the way who have touched my life, is a 6x6 red linen covered album. I love this size format because it is easy to assemble pages and to transport on trips. I like to grab it and get comfy in my favorite chair with a cup of coffee and while away an afternoon flipping through the pages!

My scrapbook pages above were fun and easy to make. The background paper is an Italian souvenir bag (thanks to Belinda!) that I cut to size. Then I attached photos, decorative papers, stickers, transparencies, German scrap and collage sheet images. I added a flourish with a Krylon gold pen.

Canada Scrapbook Pages
Choose photos for your scrapbook pages. Adhere them to tan cardstock with glue of your choice. Use Tacky Glue to attach Gold Decorative Corners to two corners of the tan cardstock. On the left page, attach ticket (I used one of my ferry tickets from the trip) with glue of choice and frame it with Gold Oval Frame. Tie a piece of ribbon around a small glass vile (put a message inside) and glue both the ribbon and the vile to the tan cardstock/photo with Goop Glue or other glue for metal. Add a quote sticker (Memory Makers) on top of the photo. Add three Brass Arrow Charms to the cardstock with Goop Glue.

To finish the left page, layer the tan cardstock onto a white or off-white scrapbook page. Take a sea sponge and dip it into Adirondack acrylic paint; I used a color called Denim. Sponge lightly over both the page and the cardstock, but not on the photo. Let dry, then use a gold pen to add swirls to the page. Lastly, use letters from the Metal Type Collage Sheet to spell out the place you visited during your travels!

For the right side, the instructions are the same, except I added Velvet Leaves - Lemon Lime and tiny square mirrors with Goop Glue. Have fun remembering your travels!!

France Scrapbook Pages
For the left page, create a fabric patchwork background by sewing 4 squares of fabric together using a ¼” seam. Cut out angel transparency from the Mystery Transparency Sheet.  Cut out little girl image from The Heart of Paris Collage Sheet with scallop scissors leaving some of the black background as a frame around the image. Sew transparency to fabric and then sew the little girl image to fabric to overlap the transparency. Cut out the fairy image from the Wings of Fancy Collage Sheet. Using glue stick, attach Victorian Butterfly, fairy image, and ribbon. Glue fabric page into scrapbook.

 For the right page, create a second background as above. Attach language flash card and personal photograph using sewing machine. Glue letters to form “I” and “fly” to flash card. Glue lens transparency from the In My Drawer Transparency Sheet over letters to frame them. Glue words/letters to form rest of sentence “back to the old streets of Paris.” Add Victorian Bird image by gluing to photograph. Glue fabric page into scrapbook.
