"Log Book of the Tranquility" mini album

A while back ago...back in April 2012, I altered a wine bottle with a underwater theme. I knew then that not only would I keep it for myself but I would create a series of projects to show case in my studio using this same theme. This piece is the fourth project in the series...

"Log Book of the Tranquility" mini album
Using K&Co. Tim Coffee's Travel collection I created this 5 page, mulit-pocket/flap mini album with room for loads of photos & journaling. Although the cover has a few of my own handmade embellishments the inside is created with just the pattern papers & the card stock embellishments that come along with the collection. The covers have a texture & design created with thick gesso & painted first with black acrylic paint then with LSG sprays. The art tile is created with a piece of the paper & some glossy accents & edged with black paint. The Tiki face & the charms are polymer clay pieces with some little sea glass beads. I love the way these four projects go together & I will add the YT links to each one here...

"Mermaid Tears" altered wine bottle...
"The Lost Tranquility" mixed media shrine...
"Treasures from the Tidepool"...
"Log Book of the Tranquility"...

The altered wine bottle was among my very first videos so it's only a slideshow but it still shows all the detail I think. These are among some of my all time favorite projects & I can't wait till I have a shelf to display them on. I've enlisted Hubby's help on that so we'll see...lol.
Well, Thanks so much again for stopping by...Till Next Time!
