Just A Dream And The Wind To Carry Me

Today's project is a Gunnadoo. Have you got some of those? You know, ideas you see and love and file away because you are "gonna do" them one day? This one has been in my Gunnadoo file for literally years, ever since I saw one at a friend's place (hi snail buddy!).

Anyways, I've been planning for a few months now to use the Nautical Expedition papers and Open Sea stamp set on this particular project and today decided that I couldn't possibly let the Summer mini end without finally completing it. Such a fantastic stamp set and I soooooooooo hope it makes it into the main catalogue come September ... are you listening, Stampin' Up!?

So, without further ado, here is my very first star book:










And of course embellishments can be added with the compass and anchor stamps etc once photos are in place. It was so much easier to make than I thought it would be and has such a wow factor when you see it that I can tell I'm going to have to make some more of these ...

Now if you haven't already gotten hold of this stamp set (and the papers too, of course) then all I can say is WHY THE HECK NOT? Get it now before the mini ends and they are sailing away .....

Thanks for dropping anchor here today.

Cheers
Kez

OMG, no wonder this has been on your Gunnadoo list. It is just so masculine. I reckon that Gunnadoo would have a massive population with people queuing at the gates.

This is superb, Kerry. I love the colour scheme, the images and the backgrounds, especially that map page.
