Dreama's Letter - August 2013

It's Awesome August!

A Few Words...

from the easel..:)

and the desk...

and the car...

and the plane...

Hello You Gorgeous Bambino You!

Buongiorno, bellissimo and gelato.

And there you have it--- I have now exhausted my entire vocabulary of the Italian language.

Do you know what the hand gesture is for more gelato?

I am hoping you are rested up from your armchair travel to France because it's almost time to for Italy! (read more below)

You can bring one person with you on the trip. If their name begins with a John and ends in a Depp that would be great. (Names that start with a George and end with an ooney would work as well)

Just forward them this email so that they can subscribe too:)

You Know I Love You!!

(Hey, that's Amore!.. awesome, I know 5 words in Italian;)!

Hugs:)

Dreaming of Italy While in Paris

Dreaming of Italy. That's what one does on a Saturday morning in Paris...

Kentucky.

Making plans on where we are headed (you said you could drive a stick shift, so you best be getting your arm warmed up!)
Landing in Rome and departing from Venice. But what to do in between??
Two whole weeks in Italia.
I am sure we will think of something;)

Of course there will be photos for you to do your journal and postcards with and on the spot videos with your roving reporter (Eddie says he's going along as camera "man" so that should be interesting...)

And give-a-ways.

There have to be lots of give-a-ways.

A wonderful watercolor journal filled with handmade paper....and some fun new watercolors (with names like Moonbeam, Blue Bayou and Lovestruck in colors that sparkle!!) --- I just discovered 'em and can't wait to share:)!

Original watercolor postcards mailed from Italy.
No doubt some Made in Italy items too---('cause a girl's gotta have some souvenirs when she armchair travels;)
A scarf or something leather or maybe some glass from Murano. Who knows??
This means we MUST shop while there. It's our job.

So mark your calendar.
Save the date.
Lay in your supply of gelato.

September 3, 2013.

Me 'n' you will be buonjournaling our way through Italy;))

Just Because...

...Because We Need Laughter

#1 and #2 are on Eddie's Bucket List

(He wants the outfit AND the ride. And yes, I was surprised as much as you were to hear that he had one --- a bucket list that is. So many bucket lists. So few (?) lives.

Jus' sayin'

(thanks to my Kiwi friend, Rom, for sending me this laugh to share:)

Workshop Fun this summer...

I get to meet some of the most wonderful people you can imagine when I teach, and this past summer has been no exception. From Le Vieux Couvent, France to Paris, Kentucky it has been an action packed summer.

It is something I never take for granted.

Here is a look at some of the fun we had in France in June:
