I love the Vespa madly:
It was coloured with two shades of Copic marker: Aqua & Putty.
(and check out her heels, hey? giggle giggle.)
The lights have Crystal Lacquer on them to make 'em look like glass:
(and her oh so fashionable goggles have some glassy lacquer too.)

These suitcase stamps make me grin (They're in the Joy Ride stamp set too.)
(don't know why, but I have a real thing for suitcases.)
These ones were stamped on book paper that was painted with whit acrylic paint &
stamped with a background number stamp while the paint was wet. Then they're distressed with Copic marker (Warm Gray no-7)
(and coloured with an Aqua Copic marker & silver metallic pen.)
I can't wait to paper piece these suitcases!
The "Ciao" sentiment is also part of the Joy Ride set.
Here, it's on a stitched flag thinger:

To make the background, I printed out a vintage postcard & painted around the edges with water to antique it (Then glued some book paper to the 5 1/2 inch square card, cut a free-hand cloud shape on the top & chalked it to add colour.)
and that's it...

On a chit-chatty moving painting life note: I'm so excited to have started painting our new place today! Sore but so thrilled. We had to pick the colour having only seen the place once (and not remembering the kitchen cupboard finish or counters etc.) Charles was in a rush to get back & watch Olympic hockey & he needed to drop me off to paint today.
So... "we" went for a Expressions Gallery Sparrow Grey a Rona brand...(I got to be the boss of paint.) ;o) As I started rolling on the paint, it looked a fair bit purple (fine if ya like purple, but we were going for warm grey & I thought to meself: "Eeep, Charles is not going to like this!") It dried wonderfully, though. Never been more pleased with a paint shade in all my years of painting (and i mean LOTs of painting! methinks I've moved more times than the circus.) Better yet, C is twitterpated with the paint colour too (as twitterpated as C gets over paint, that is!) ;o) Ahhhhhhh life is good.
And no VOC paint seems to make quite the difference...
If your curious what our paint colour looks like; it looks something like this (the top two photos) but our household "stuff" is not nearly that hip! :o)
