I have an apology to make as I am not at my desk. I am on my hols but did not want to miss out on the fun so instead of my desk, here is where I am..
In my favourite place in the world appart from home, Italy! Yesterday we went to a place called Cortona which is absolutely beautiful and I went in this shop which you ladies would just love.....
It's a stationers, they make their own paper and then make the most wonderful diaries, note books, address books, journals etc with it! I have seriously stroked ALOT and got some weird looks in the process! They also have ink pens, proper ones that you dip in ink and a choice of different coloured inks and notecards. This is what I bought, I had to restrain myself, I wanted everything!
Finally we had a lovely lunch and then had to have one of these....
Ice cream and yes they did taste as good as they looked! I hope you are all having a great week and I am looking forward to having a look at what you have made this week!

Ooh Tracey how lovely - perfect WOYWW really - great views, great stationery and ice cream. Hope your holiday continues perfectly.
Wow isn't Cortona where they have those amazing Art Retreats...you're not on a secret one of those are you?? The view reminds me of where we lived (8 yrs ago) in New Zealand, very like Welcome Bay looking over towards Mt Maunganui. Maybe we shd pop over to Italy when we feel homesick! Have a restful time Leandra
Jealous! What a wonderful view! Add to that stationery and ice cream, and as Julia says - PERFECT.
Oh you lucky thing, well done you for showing restraint with the pens! Mmm gelato, very envious!
Beautiful view - how did you get the clouds to form WOYWW for you??? lol Have a fab hol it looks amazing.

Looks like you are having a fabulous time
I'd rather be there than here, that's for sure.
So you are a dedicated one. On hols and still couldn't resist a peak. That stationers -don't think I could have resisted it. Once a papercrafter -you know the rest. Queueing for the bus I couldn't stop studying the check shirt of the teenage girl in front and thinking how I could translate that look into a card. Guess we'll be seeing some Italian style from you then. Hugs Betty
Wonderful! Thanks for taking the time out to post these fab pictures!
Enjoy the rest of your holiday!
