 | | I made this bookmark for the SCS Inspiration Challenge IC334 from the other week of Rosenberry Rooms and only just finished it. I was inspired by this Girls Duvet cover here: http://www.rosenberryrooms.com/187-c...vet-cover.html I haven't made a pink + green colour combo for AGES and forgot how much I loved it - and luckily I could still find some pink and green dp's in my stash. See this link for the deets on the challenge: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/fo...D-t552998.html
I actually made this bookmark with a matching card as a little gift set for someone special who is unwell, but I am sure you could use it for many occasions such as a birthday, friendship, Mother's Day etc. See my gallery on SCS at this link here for the matching card: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...;ppuser=195423 - or check out my blog (link at bottom of this write-up).
The main image is actually a Penny Black Stickeroo from their sticker sheet 'A Bunch of Love' #10-165 - ie: I did not stamp nor colour the image.
I coloured the ground underneath the sticker with a bit of Kaisercolour green chalk and around the sky with blue chalk (not that you can see it all that well - it is subtle) before I added the sticker to my cs so it looked like a bit of grass/ground and added Kindyglitz Crystalina glitter glue to the flowers.
The pink glitter butterfly on the bottom of the bookmark was punched out of pink glitter cs using a Martha Stewart Butterfly punch and I added some green glitter cardstock underneath. I used a 1/4" round hole punch to punch a hole at the top then threaded through some scrap threads from balls of yarn plus some Cotton Candy twine (by the Twinery) and Limeade twine (by We R Memory Keepers Sew Easy fancy floss). I love the texture that the funky fibres added to the bookmark :-))
Finished bookmark size is 165mm long x 65mm wide OR imperial 6-1/2" long x 2-9/16" wide.
Thanks for having a peek at my card! Please come and peek at my blog - this link will take you directly to my card: http://instead-of-ironing.blogspot.c...tickeroos.html
