Stampin'up - The Open Sea- Notebook/journal

Hello

Quite often we find we need a small notebook/ journal, or perhaps a small gift. This one will fit in a pocket or handbag.

 

I first covered the notebook, added an elastic strap to the back cover (to hold it closed when stuffed with notes, brochures etc.), then lined the inside front and back covers.

A pocket was added inside the front cover and three tags to be used as pageholders or for extra notes.
Images from Stampin'up The Open Sea were stamped in navy on to white card, matted to navy card and layered flat to the front cover. Tickets from That's the ticket were also stamped and punched and added in the layers. Paper clips and slides were placed on some pages, candy dots added to the front, rhinestones to the compass and the map(Australia of course), and the compass and anchor coated with crystal effects.
No ordinary notebook now.
Till next time
