Wouldn't it be awesome to travel the world looking for
the most beautiful bookstores? Well, I got to visit one that is on all the lists. The Livraria Llelo in Porto, Portugal was built in 1906 and is said to have inspired J.K. Rowling for her Harry Potter series. The interior is simply amazing!
I used the brand new December main and embellishment kits from Citrus Twist Kits (available
here). The Basic Grey alphas and the flair were added from my stash.
My design was inspired by this Page Drafts sketch that I have saved for over two years!
Thank you for stopping by! Share your favorite bookstore with me so that I can add it to my list ;)
Wow! That must have been a hard place to leave. It looks incredible. How long were you in there for?!
ReplyDeleteI find bookshops fascinating too and can't resist browsing whenever I get the opportunity. This one must be the most fabulous one I've ever seen and would love to visit it personally but your lovely scrap page will have to suffice for now :) I like the combination of papers and embellishments you've chosen to use for your layout - just beautiful.
