My Mom recently turned me onto The Borgias. I'm loving the rich costumes and beautiful Italian Renaissance settings. So, that inspired this lovely collage sheet featuring a vintage map of Venice and an assortment of Italian postage stamps.

I have always loved Renaissance art and architecture. I recently asked my Mom if she could make a pair of Renaissance-inspired earrings. And here are the equisite earrings that she made. Aren't they gorgeous?! What a clever, creative way to use our Mini Clover Windows.

When I put together the new digi freebie, I remembered how cute Inca helped me with the Sepia Post collage sheet.
Hope you're having a great Summer! I will see you in 2 weeks (August 3 or 4) with a new fun digi freebie, inspiration and a bit o' cuteness! : )
Inca is SO adorable!!! My hubby and I watched THE BORGIAS also! Yes, the costumes and the settings were beautiful. (I love Artchix, I'm a loyal customer. When I place an order, I 'can't wait' for it to arrive! It's my own private little party each time!)

Love the BORGIAS!!! I am also hooked on Camelot, and HBO's Game of Thrones...and of course...Boardwalk Empire and True blood!
Those earrings are lovely! good job mom!
Awesome freebie thanks so much, and This cat of yours is such a sweetie, Inca is definitely my favorite, I just love the face!
I keep trying to get a shot of grand kitty stretched out and with his mitts showing at a good angle (extra digits) but it is not happening. I may have to try for 2 separate shots, but he is also camera shy. :(
Hope you are comfy where you are. We are broiling over here on the east coast! :(
Hugs,
Susan
