Blackberry Bliss Book Markers

Hello Crafters.

Today's bookmarkers have been made using another new Stampin' Up! in colour called Balckberry Bliss.

I started this book marker
by stamping with the
Gorgeous Grunge stamp
set, once in full colour and
immediately again so it
stamped lighter. I did this
once near the top and once
near the bottom. Inside
my Whisper White offcuts
a piece that I have embossed
with one of  the narrow
Delicate Designs Embossing
Folders. I cut it to size and
affixed to the bottom of my
stamped image and adhered
a piece of ribbon over the
join.

I looked in my Wisteria Wonder folder and found some stamped
flowers from the Petite Petals stamp set and adhered
three of them on top of the image. 
  
As you see, I always
keep all images I have
painted, or embossed,
or stamped, or punched.
I file them in ziplock
bags in with the actual
card stock. I am very
thrifty!

With the butterfly book
marker, I found some large and small punched
butterflies. I stamped both with the En
Francais background stamp, punched out 3
smaller butterflys in Blackberry Bliss card
stock, and adhered them together. I cut the
bodies from the smaller ones (saving the
wings for another project!) - and adhered on top.

I'm not sure if you can see from the photographs (sorry about the quality of the close-up photograph!) but I spritzed them with a glimmer spray.

Tomorrow, it'll be Mossy Meadow.

Happy crafting.
