My photos for this project don't do it justice.
Stamps: Dreams du Jour
Paper: Whisper White, Patterns Night of Navy Designer Series Paper
Ink: Basic Brown
Accessories: Styled Silver Hodgepodge Hardware, Filigree Brads, Paper Snips, Watercolor Wonder Crayons, Chocolate Chip Double Stitched Ribbon, Aquapainter
At convention, Brent Steele showed us a variety of bookmark ideas and we made one at our make-n-take using chipboard. I wanted to be different and use the stuff I owned, so I started with the beautiful ribbon.
Hodgepodge Hardware frames come with two rounds ends for brads. To cut one off, I used my craft and rubber scissors. With one quick snip, the offending part was off! I use mini glue dots to adhere the Patterns paper to the frame and a brad and a filigree do-hicky to secure the frame to the ribbon. I use an aquapainter to paint the butterfly.


Happy Stamping!
What terrific idea. Very pretty and looks really simple to do aswell.

I like your bookmark. I still haven't gotten around to making any of these. I think I need to though. We give books to alot of people for christmas and wouldn't it be great if I could give them a handmade bookmark to go with it. I'm waiting for my vanilla HPH to get here so I can have some real fun :-)
