I had loads of pictures with signs to choose from, but ultimately, summarizing a trip on a two-page spread was my choice. Rimini, Italy is a curious beach city. A lot of Russians come down there for Spring-break-like trips, so all of the old quintessentially Italian views, ruins, and monuments were hidden, blocked off, or covered with graffiti. I suppose it had it's own kind of charm.
Materials: Studio Calico: Newsport/Classic Calico; Scenic Route: Metropolis/Market St.; Bazzill Basics: Metallic Paper; S.E.I: Mountain Trail/Silvervalley Collection; Graffiti paper: Unknown, probably circa 2007; White Vellum, Ivory Glitter paper by Recollections; Studio Calico: BookJacket/Memoir Collection; Template by Simple Scrapper Premium Membership
I kept the embellishments to a minimum because the photography was strong. (I try to get artsy with my photos, but Mr. Handsome has a steadier hand. We make a good pair.) I added some flags and stripes in a graffiti paper to make the sign stand out. Here are a few detailed pictures so that you can see the shimmer of the paper (top) and detail in one of my favorite pictures (bottom):
