The Long Way Home June 2016 Blog Hop

Welcome to the June 2016 SOTM Blog Hop featuring the stamp set The Long Way Home. This month there are almost 30 CTMH Independent Consultants sharing projects they created with The Long Way Home.

Since to took many, many photos while on this vacation, my mini album could go on and on, but I stopped here for the hop.
