I decided to start on a group of photos from our trip to Italy a couple of years ago. I realized as I was working my way through the files that I take many photos that are meant to be used for design inspiration. I thought I'd share some images from a church in Lucca. Many of these are drastic crops of photos so the clarity isn't perfect but they serve as good references for future projects.
I liked the swirling floral border on this medallion but it was very high above me when I took the photo.
Chevron designs are so popular now - everything old becomes new again!
Here is a circular version of the chevron design.
This alternating floral border is also quite lovely.
These simple designs would be nice borders for cards or pages.
My favorites tend to be the geometric designs, whether they are square...
...or circular. There are more chevrons here - like washi tape, they are everywhere in the crafting world recently. I wonder what old design will be the next "new" trend!
I hope you are having a great weekend - the weather is fabulous here and we took some time to go out and enjoy it today!
