My Time In Venice with Craft Hoarders Anonymous

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today is another fun challenge over at Gloria Stengels, Craft Hoarders Anonymous! 
This is my second challenge for Craft Hoarders Anonymous as a Guest Designer. I have to say I feel so honored to have been asked by Gloria Stengel to be a part of her wonderful challenge blog this month. If you have never stopped by or taken part in their challenges you really need to go over and check out the beautifully designed creations by Gloria and her Design Team. 
"Thank you Gloria for having me be a part of your wonderful Challenge Blog."

Many of us travel around the holidays, so let's celebrate our adventures! Dig into your hoard and find some items that are vacation or travel themed. Do you have a hoard of cruise ship ephemera? Do you have a box of transportation stamps? Do you have a stash of camping themed papers? Or piled of Disney embellishments? Show them off! Create a vacation or travel themed project for us!

If you've been a long time follower you know that I have not done scrapbook pages. However I have been wanting to do a scrapbook for a long time. Well here is an old, old photo of me & hubby in Venice when we lived in Italy. This picture was taken in, Oh'no I'm totally gonna date myself, 1987. Yep, that's me in my younger years. lol  The picture shows us in San Marcos Square and other pictures shows a Gondola Event that was happening during our visit.
Wow, seeing these pictures really brought back memories, we were newly weds during this time and just having fun traveling to different places throughout Italy. This is a time I will never forget. 


***This picture shows the Gondola's in the Venice Canal. 

***This is one of the boats getting decorated for the event.

***Picture of Cathedral in San Marcos Square.
