Bookmark Blues

 


Inspired by the bookmark the lovely Brenda included with my recent prize.  What a nice surprise it was!

A leftover strip of card,  smooshed with DI's.  Spritzed with shimmer, stencilled with stars and dots (stencil made with a leftover diecut & DOxI's) & stamped.  An irregular top border cut freehand (to keep the kinda weird theme), added hand-drawn borders top & bottom.  White dots and black dots made with pens, some Copic stripes & eyes added to the people.  Gilding flakes to random spots, yarn threads.

Fun and just perfect for our blue theme theme at Allsorts Carol, thanks so much for sharing.

Pleased you like your tag/bookmark I enjoy making them. The idea goes back many years to about 2008 when I entered my first craft challenge, won a prize and the lady included something similar so inspired me to do the same.
