• This underwater or sea themed scrapbook/journal, based on how you wanna use it, is perfect for art journaling or random scrapbooking or just gifting it to someone special who would enjoy using it. The book is manually made using handmade sheets both for the outer cover and the inner pages. It is bound together using royal blue satin ribbon along with a brown twine. Coming to the craft-zy work done on the cover of the book, I used sea shells that I personally love collecting and have a mini collection of, to make cute little jellyfishes with googly eyes. I used a light blue textured cardstock, a plain brown cardstock and finally a dark blue thin handmade sheet, all layered one on top of the other using some double sided foam tape for the light blue and brown pieces to give that slight dimension. Also, I used white cardstock for the tentacles of the jellyfish and the seaweed. At the lower end of the brown cardstock, I used very light blue and green coloured threads along with light white sparkly thread and the same brown twine used for holding the book together, to create a nice element of interest and a tangled crafty look to it. Finally, I've also used wooden embellishments (anchor and the LIFE banner) to give it a slight rustic edge and add more character to it...a few more final touches with the round stones and twine with the anchor...and...tada!
