Good morning Junkies! I don't know about you, put I love a good read. For those that still prefer printed materials over electronic media, I've created a couple of bookmarks. These are all standard size and embossing figures heavily in their creation.
1) Cut your bookmark paper to 2-1/8 x 6-1/2
2) Stamp Le Tour Eiffel on a piece of mixed media paper and emboss with Silver Moon Turquoise embossing powder.
3) Spray stamped image with Art Anthology Plush and Wild Orchid Colorations.
4) Trim to 1-7/8 x 6
5) Stamp one of the sentiments from Bookworms, Set of 6 onto a piece of velum using black Staz-On ink.
6) Glue your trimmed, stamped image to your piece of bookmark paper, leaving room at the top to punch a hole.
7) Add a little purple fiber and VOILA! You have a bookmark
The next bookmark is created in a similar manner:
1) Cut your bookmark paper to 2-1/8 x 6-1/2
2) Stamp Books Background onto mixed media paper with Versamark ink and emboss with black embossing powder.
3) Spray with Art Anthology Granny Smith Colorations.
4) Trim to 1-7/8 x 6
5) Stamp your sentiment from Bookworms Set of 6 onto a small piece of yellow card and trim.
6) Glue everything down, leaving enough room to punch a hole.
7) Run coordinating fiber though the hole.
That's it! Two really sturdy bookmarks to use with paperbacks, hardbacks, or magazines. I had so much fun making these I think I'm going to do a few more. I have several magazines that could use some good bookmarks.
Until later.
