Crafty Champion

Hi there and I hope you are enjoying the amazing sunshine we are having this weekend. I went to my wonderful friends house yesterday who I have known since school, and a few of us Mummys and our kiddies got together for a BBQ and a good catch up! It was so lovely to see her and I will share a sweet photo of her and her cute little bump!
Gorgeous Bryony and her bump! My son had a great time also as the garden was nice and big for him to run and play outside all afternoon!!
So my project for today are bookmarks. These have been popular recently on other blogs so I thought I would have a turn! I used the Fun Flowers and the big shot and used perfect plum card stock and wild wasabi card stock. I sponged the edges in the same colour ink as the cards stock and then I used tombow to layer the petals ontop of each other and once they were attatched I used a subtles button attached with a glue dot and I tied some twine in a bow through the holes.
For the perfect plum bookmark, I used a rose red button and then on whisper white card stock I stamped the block image from clearly for you in perfect plum (stamping off a couple of time to lighten the ink) then stamped the for you sentiment also form clearly for you, in rose red. I punched this out with the jewelry tag punch and attatched to the botton with another glue dot. I attatched some retired rose red ribbon to the bakc of the largest flower with sticky strip and cut at an angle at the bottom.
I finished both bookmarks with a good spritz of shimmer paint for sparkle!!
I used the same process for the wild wasabi bookmark but used the hand crafted stamp from tiny tags as the sentiment for this one. I love how these look and thank you to whoever came up with this wonderful idea!!! Enjoy the sun everyone ;)
