Bella Italia with 13@rts

 

Welcome everyone!

 

Summer, sun and a delicious italian ice cream, what could be better? 

When I discovered the beautiful 'Bella' collection at 13 arts 

I was inspired to create a new mixed media summer layout.

 

 A little bit vintage, a little bit old and dilapidated, 

that's how I remember the romantic alleys and streets on Lake Garda. 

My last summer holiday in Italy was a little while ago, 

but I still remember it very fondly. 

 

But you can find a little bit of italy here too, even if it's just a really 

delicious italien ice cream parlour.

 

 used materials

 

 

 

 Sunrise collection - Daylight

Brought some life into the summer layout by creating an awning for a cosy shady seating. 

Used two straws and matching paper from Sunrise collection. 

Together with some outcasts from Prima IOD silicone moulds a wonderful ambience. 

Have a beautiful summer time!

Thanks for your visit!

a great addition, 

such a lot of creative possibilities!
