A Bookmark

Good Afternoon!

Hope you're having a wonderful Tuesday. We ran errands this morning and did some clean up around the house, but I also managed to squeeze in some crafting time too.

With school about to start in a few short weeks, I've been wanting to make some back to school projects and today was inspired by the "Reading" challenge over at Copic Creations.

I decided to make a bookmark and have used this darling fairy image from Elizabeth Dulemba who is sponsoring the challenge. Elizabeth Dulemba is an award winning children's book author and illustrator and I think it's wonderful that she is sharing her artwork with us! Thanks for this beautiful image! More info and links to Elizabeth's website can be found on the Copic Creations blog.

I kept my bookmark fairly simple and just made the image the focal point. I've colored with Copics and highlighted with some glitter accents. The papers are BG Eva with some Razzleberry and Pink card stock from SU!. I finished off with a jumbo eyelet, some ribbons, and 2 fabric covered brads. And because this image is cute and girly, it fits the challenge over at Creative Card Crew too!

Thanks for dropping by today. Hope you have a fantastic afternoon and evening!

Happy Stamping,
