I do not even have the words to describe how WILD our trips to the Cancha were in Cochabamba. It is an open air market where we bought most of our souvenirs and I learned to bargain. I think on our last trip (which is when this picture was taken) I was buying things just to bargain with the vendors. It was such a strange thing for me to get used to- being able to ask for a lower price and then having to walk away if you didn't get it for the price you wanted. Walking away was almost always the way to seal the deal for the price I wanted.
I dug deep into my stash as I'd really like to make room for a few new releases this summer. I loved these Pink Paislee papers, so much so that I hoarded the majority of them. It felt good cutting into brand new papers that have just been sitting around for over a year.

Oh and I am totally jealous of your trip(s), looks like LOTS of fun!
Love your layout. You can tell by the photo that you are having a real good time.
My dream is to go into a market place such as this one.
Cute layout, and I have done that too. Hoarded the paper and once I use it finally it is so freeing and seems so silly to just hold on to it!
Love how you did ribbons as your main texture element. Beautiful!
