Must Love to Travel



I'm back from my short and sweet R & R! Hubby and I love to get away whenever possible, even if it's only for a few days. Thought I'd share this piece I created & sold last year called "Traveling Fairies". Using a tin suitcase, which I altered and collaged with decorative papers, stock photos, & prints of vintage girlies made into fairies.



Couldn't forget the luggage tag!



I also collaged the inside of the tin suitcase and packed it with souvenir goodies.



8 Fairy postcards from around the world, which were double-sided ACEO's (Art Cards, Editions & Originals), 2.5" X 3.5" in size. The 8 destinations they visited were Paris, New York, India, China, London, Japan, Cairo, and of course where I live, San Francisco.







I also added 8 matching Fairy magnet stamps.



For our honeymoon, over 4 years ago now, we got the chance to do a Eurotrip! It was a dream come true for me! We were lucky enough to visit Rome, Paris, & London. I'll never forget the wonderful time we had. Hopefully someday we will get a chance to revisit Europe and hit more destinations too!

Obviously, now you know, I Must Love to Travel!

Blessings from San Francisco :)
