[Part 1 of At Sea with Creativity appeared yesterday.]
Project 3: Vintage Elegance Journal Kit
The travel journal turned out to be a MAJOR project for me. It was a skinny perfect bound notebook. I used the kit to design the front and back covers; then began to fill the pages.
I soon realized I would do a makeover of the journal when I got home. I had the skinny book filled with just two days’ memories of our 14-day cruise.
Here it is deconstructed and reconstructed. It is now spiral-bound, has over 70 pages and holds photos, tickets, brochures, menus … all those little things we often throw in a box that ends up in the attic never to be seen again.
I gave the journal to my hubby for Christmas. He loved it.
Project 4: Photo Frame Kit
The final kit was a tropical photo frame. I didn’t stay for the "class" because we had a shore trip that day.
In fact, I just finished the frame yesterday and inserted a photo from the shore trip that very day: one of the beautiful birds of Cartegena.
Aah, the memories … now they're preserved!

Did you do the spiral binding yourself? That's one wicked nice journal!
Thank you, Cyndi.
Yes, I bound it using my Zutter Bind-It-All. Easy-peasy.
Look at you... a finished journal! I agree with Cyndi... that is one wicked nice journal!
