Florida granny Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Here is my Marrakesh colorful layout. We sure did a lot of shopping while we were there! A choice between lavender fields or wine? Oh dear! Hmmm.... I think I'll take the winery tour as I love learning how wine is made. Andrea @alsoarty , will you bring me back a lavender sachet or two? And I'll bring you some grapes! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane in N.Z Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 I love the idea of going to Provence in France and staying in a Chateaux.....hope there are no ghosts ? What to choose is difficult as I love going to Lavender fields but don't fancy making perfume but making soap instead would be good. I rather fancy the vineyard tour but not sure about the colours,,,,such a hard decision. Can wee do both 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

April Showers Posted September 19, 2022 Author Share Posted September 19, 2022 Monday, September 19th Whether it was the perfume or the wine, some of us awoke with headaches this morning. Our host has a few herbal remedies to try. A bit of lavender oil may help as well. You can find me relaxing and reading a book by the chateau’s pool.

April Showers Posted September 19, 2022 Author Share Posted September 19, 2022 Here is my "Provence Inspired" page. In the Garden with Grandpa.

Jane in N.Z Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I certainly was one with a headache and it was a humdinger, sniffing all that lavender and the wine tasting Such a great day though I used the sky as my inspiration and this photo is the changing view from our lounge and garden everynight Provence Page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MariJ Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Pool and lavender sounds good to me. The water is really warm, I've been floating around and using the hot tub. I heard they'll deliver poolside so I ordered pancakes and eggs - anyone want to join us? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida granny Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Here's my Provence layout. I was inspired by the beautiful light in both photos. Ah... this is the most relaxing day we've had so far on our World Tour. I love the scent of lavender and the poolside service. @MariJ I'll definitely join you for pancakes! I think they might even be special French crepes! (Or maybe both?) Yum! That lavender honey is a special treat, too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladyscrapalot Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 I chose the winery photo for my inspiration. I had actually completed and posted another layout but then I remembered that I might have a photo from Napa. So I deleted my other layout and did this one. I had trouble with the size again. However I found a way to fix it. Long story short, I started a new layout and dragged all my layers from the layout that was too big. I was able to resize it like I always do and upload it. Not sure why it does it in the first place but I'm happy I way to work it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
April Showers Posted September 20, 2022 Author Share Posted September 20, 2022 Tuesday, September 20th Last night we sailed through the Mediterranean and have arrived at the Amalfi Coast. This region preserves the old Italy; one rich with unique architecture, culinary influences, and fabulous landscapes. Enjoy pastel-hued fishing villages, amazing views, and plenty of Italian food. The Amalfi Coast stretches over 25 miles connecting picturesque villages, lemon terraces, vineyards, and stunning cliffs with beautiful views over the azure blue sea. A single photo can’t show all the beauty of this region. Start a layout with at least 3 photos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-M Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 My Provence page: Grevilleas was inspired by the lavender colours, flowers and the rows of lavender bushes so my photos are in a row. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MariJ Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Oh my I've always wanted to visit Amalfi and waking up here this morning was a beautiful sight to see! I think I'll check out the tours today, I'd like to see the fishing villages, tour the coast to take photos and of course, sample the foods! What's everyone else thinking of doing, maybe we can go as a group? Heard of anything good? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KristiM Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 My inspiration for the Provence, France challenge was the beautiful skies. My photos are from last fall's vacation to Dauphin Island, AL where the sunrises (and sunsets too) are spectacular!I loved visiting the lavender fields and it made me feel so relaxed. I also enjoyed my perfume making class, but they gave us an option to make some scented lotion so I created a lavender vanilla blend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

April Showers Posted September 21, 2022 Author Share Posted September 21, 2022 Wednesday, September 21st Today we’re heading to the island of Capri to admire its natural wonders like the Blue Grotto and the Augustus Gardens. The color Capri is named after the color of the Blue Grotto as it appears on a bright sunny day. Add something blue to your layout. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-M Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 I do like that lovely blue waters of the Blue Grotto. Sadly I have been called away on family business but hope to return and catch up on the tour in a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariJ Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Ahhhhh, Capri! I've always wanted to visit here, too. We are waking up in the most gorgeous places each day, thank you Captain April! Our tours yesterday were a lot of fun, Andrea and I took so many photos! ? @alsoarty Does anyone have any ideas of what to do today? I'd like to do some touring, but I'd also like to find a spot where you can swim in these beautiful waters. Such stunning colors all around us. I wonder if the water is warm? We've been having such a wonderful time, but I'm getting tired! So I guess it's first off to breakfast, hope to meet some of you there and make some plans. On another note: I heard some loud partying last night, do you think any ScrapGirls were involved???? ? ?♂️? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
