The Teapot Tuesday challenge this week is "your favorite time of day." My favorite time is anytime I can grab a book and escape into another world for a few minutes. I pretty much read all day long as part of my job, but it's not the same as walking into a good story. My card features a digi image of a girl reading (and I still like to lie on my tummy and read like that). I don't know the source of the sentiment (which is an unmounted red rubber one), but it's quite lovely -- A book is like a garden carried in a pocket. I wanted to keep the card mostly black and white, so the embellies are black label tape of the alphabet and a tiny pearl on the dog-eared top corner (And no, I don't dog-ear my books, do you?)

WOW, it's like you found a picture of my daughter. Yes, she dog eared many pages. The card is awesome.
Me, nope. I had found a crochet book mark once at a yardsale with Victoria crochet into it. I think it was In a book I donated. 😔

Sandy, I love the sentiment and the image of a girl lying on her stomach enjoying her book. I remember lying in the field next door and reading, especially mysteries like Nancy Drew. Thank you for reminding me how special books are

Oh how cute to put a dog eared corner with this theme, Sandy! (No, I don't do that!) Sweet image! Lovely coloring and sentiment too. I love to read when time permits~
