Come Sail Away!!!

Hi everyone, as time flies by here in Canada we get closer and closer to sailing season!  I can't wait till we are back on the water.  With this thought in mind I was inspired by Susan's stamp called Sail Away!  Isn't it cute!
I started with these simple items.  A small recycled paper journal pad.  Some ribbon, bling and a bit of piece of paper called Live, Love, Create and a bit of Beautiful Daydreams. 



I started by cutting up the alphabet off of the Live, Love and Create paper.  A through Z was cut out and then glued to every other page of the journal.

 
I then stamped and cut out the boat and wave stamp as well I made strips from the sentiment.  I coloured the boat and water with water colour pencils and then blended with water.

I then cut out the sun from the Beautiful Daydreams paper.  I glued the sun, boat, water and sentiment to the front of the journal.


I added bling to the water and the sun just for a bit of sparkle!  Then I cut up 3 pieces of each ribbon and threaded them through the binding of the journal and knotted them.  I trimmed up the ends of the ribbon and voila done! A cute little book to house anything alphabetical, not sure what yet, maybe all those passwords I keep forgetting! 




I hope you are having a great week, see you next time around!

Jennifer
