Seeing Stars!

This weeks theme on the Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge is "Stars". I'm a big fan of the Retro Grunge pad, and this star paper is one of my favorite designs from that stack.  It makes a great cover for this pocket journal, don'tcha think? :).

I finished it off with some stamped detail in the central recessed panel and an Idea-ology tassel chain.  This is all ready now to become a stocking filler for someone! :)

Our ever-generous sponsor Simon Says Stamp is offering a $50 gift voucher as the prize again this week! The winner will be chosen at random from those who enter the challenge, so why not give it a try? At the very least why not head over to the Challenge Blog to see how the other members of the design team have interpreted this weeks theme! :)

    I think it's too good to be a stocking filler-it needs to be a main pressie!

    Dan, your star covered pocket journal is really wonderful! I love that paper and how you recessed a center star on the cover. What a great idea for a stocking stuffer!! <3 Candy
