This Book Belongs To...

Good day fellow crafty friends, I have a bookmark to share today. I've been having quite a few requests for them lately. This one is a birthday gift to my sister, it will be mailed overseas to the caribbean. I really hope she gets it, as the Christmas card I sent didn't make it for some reason. So there is a little story behind this bookmark... First of all I made myself one a few months ago and used the queen from Queenie and Princess, so for my sisters I used the princess portion of the stamp. After all she is my younger sister, i thought it was a cute idea.

Here is the breakdown: I used some kraft paper to follow our "Kraft Challenge" theme this month and saw that Kerri used kraft on her ticket dies and just had to be a copy cat! I placed several brads and one fancy stitched one, some black rhinestones and a decorative button. I use a Crop-A-Dille eyelet and punch tool to make the hole for the tassel and also added a pretty bead to it. On my image I paper pieced her top, embossed her princess hat in gold tinsel and attached a pair of black glasses(which is a brad).

I hope you like it and have a beautiful day!

Bookmark Fit For A Queen

Happy Easter to all you crafty peeps out there! Being an avid reader, I have finally decided to make a bookmark for myself. The stamp I used is Queenie and Princess, but fussy cut out the queen and only used that portion. I glittered her crown and added glossy accents to accentuate the jewels. I recently picked up some fun brads from the OCS store that are glasses, I carefully made incisions on queens face and fitted her with the spectacles(Yup, this queen is a bookworm!). For my tassel I used a large vintage brass flower and added a large black bead to the center of it. I love it, and I hope you do too! 

And hey! There is still a wee bit of time to enter our "Anything Goes" challenge.
