AJJ: Sail away

This page was inspired by a desk clean up. I was sorting through a drawer of a desktop organizer when I spotted the map and ship pieces of ephemera.

The blue scrapbook paper seemed perfect for an ocean and a bit of white mulberry paper provided the white cap wave idea.

I imagined this ship to be sailing to different areas of the world trading goods along the way such as the fancy trim I included. Perhaps some lucky soul was able to book a passage for this adventure.

I once again turned to my tiny drawer of found text for just the right words. I also added a side tab with some fun fibers strung through. I couldn’t stop myself from adding a couple of beads that reminded me of glass fishing floats.

There’s still a bit of time left to join in for my July theme of Fabric, lace and trims…oh my! over at Art Journal Journey.
