Oops I spilled coffee on my bookmark.......

Photo Details

Poster: pbvkt

....hee hee...not really! Although, I do actually have lots of books with coffee stains in them due to my clutziness!!

I created this tag bookmark for today's Ways To Use It challenge to make a bookmark. I also based this on the CPS blog sketch challenge this week.

The coffee stain, spots and words are all from an old cornish heritage farms set. Then lots of sponging, some faux stitching, and finally drops of water sprinkled on to accentuate the look of the spill! I think I'll send this off to a good friend of mine that I haven't seen for a while.

Thanks for the inspiration!

This reminds me of a friend who used to lend books only on the condition that they came back with no dog-ears or tea stains :D.
