I shared my awesome bargain on all those books yesterday so I thought I'd make a couple bookmarks today! I made an orange one! (gasp!) I created a blue and purple combo, too, for my sweet friend, Christina! She reads a lot so I know she will like this!
After I took these photos and edited them, I decided to add doodle dots to the smaller scalloped square, too. I also added doodle dots to the purple bookmark and it looks so pretty! The ribbon, chipboard and rhinestones were things I already had but the rest of the supplies are all from The Angel Company, including the scalloped square punches!
I took a piece of chipboard and punched out two Giga Scalloped Squares with my punch. I inked the front and back of the orange one using Palette Hybrid ink Orangerie. The purple one was colored with my purple Tombow marker from the brights collection! I used two pieces of Hip Hop designer paper from The Angel Company. I took my Mega Scallop punch and punched scallop squares in the Hip Hop paper. I then punched four 1½" squares from the same paper pack but using a different design. The flowers are attached to the front with a glue dot. I added a faux rhinestone to the center of each flower; a clear one for the orange and a purple for the blue flower.
I wish you could see these beads in real life! They are so pretty! The bead I chose for my orange bookmark has gold sparkly flecks in it. Soooo pretty! The purple bead has a pretty shine to it, as well. I have a lot more bookmarks you can check out HERE.Hope you all enjoy your Memorial Day weekend! I will be working this evening. Going to take a little nap now so I can stay awake all night! LOL
Hugs,
