Detination Havana for Lindy's stamp gang & 7 Dots Studio challenges

I am enjoying the laste few days of my vacation, trying to take some time and play in my craftroom. I am starting to build my souvenir album from our recent trip to Cuba. I know many people enjoy mini albums and I might do one, but I feel like doing some 12x12 pages at the moment.   Got inspired by the july challenges at Lindy's Stamp Gang and also at 7 Dots Studio   Let's start with the challenge at Lindy's Stamp Gang. I got inspired by the vibrant colors of the color combination, mainly the green, pink and blue. I just took thsi perfect picture in Havana of the old American Cars. It's very typical in Havana and I just wanted to start my album with this picture.

The paper collection I used for my page is one of my favorites for the Dreamer Collection by Anna Dabrowska-Pkocka #SDPP0012

 

The challenge was to focus on Urban Themes, think big cities. Well, just coming back from Cuba, I had to make a page of our day trip to visit Havana. What did we love the most about Havana? How they are renovating many of the old buidlings that have been damaged thru the years and also the tons of old American Vintage cars. On our outing we actually traveled from Varadero to Havana in one of theses old cars. I took this picture of a series of convertible cars all ligned up in the old town of Havana. Just had to use this one for my challenge.

 

Here is a closer look at my beautiful picture with the architecture in the background.

Hope you enjoyed my take on the challenges.
