Have you ever been to Vinci in Tuscany? It´s a lovely village in the hills, and when you´re on top of these hills at the house where Leonardo was born, and enjoy the view over that fabulous landscape, you´ll ask yourself in which way the beauty of that place has formed the genius that was born there. I don´t know. And of course you´ll never forget that "daVinci" (= from Vinci) is not the last name of this artist but just his birth place. Last names hadn´t been "invented" then.This week´s Wednesday Stamper´s challenge theme is Leonardo. My card features stamps from Ma Vinci, Heindesign, Cherry Pie, Inkastamps, and Stampington. The background paper isn´t striped by the way but a shimmery metallic that my scanner seems to hate - I´m sorry for that.

bei metallic scheinen übrigens scanner generell zu spinnen...
in da vinci war ich noch nicht, hört sich toll an. tolle karte! danke für ortsinfo!
Marion, your stamps are actually fabulous to me! I did go to Vinci years ago and you are so correct. The beauty of the landscape can't be truly described. You have done a great job here in this piece of art to show some of the beauty there.
Wonderful card. Fabulous background building.
Ich war letztes Jahr im Mai in Vinci und kann Dir nur zustimmen - ein wunderbarer Ort! Die Toskana ist wunderschön, genauso wie Deine Karte. :-)Von wem sind die Häuser im Hintergrund?
Hallo Berit, die Häuser sind von Inkastamps; neuerdings bekommst Du die alten Inkastamps-Motive über Scrollswork.
WOW, how cool is this?? Love your stamping and composition!! You've made a fantastic and very elegant card!!

Great work and you have a wonderful selection of stamps to draw from. Yes, I was in Vinci last month and also visited the Leonardo museum which was outstanding. I'm a great Leonardo fan.
