Bookmark

Today I decided to make a new bookmark since the one I am currently using is pretty old.  Yes, I still read regular books!  For some reason I still have a hard time buying e-books.  It just doesn't feel the same as holding an actual book!

I used the new stamp set from Simon Says Stamp called To Thine Own Shelf.  This set came in their monthly card kit.  I just love this set and all the individual images you get with it.

I also used cardstock and a sticker sheet that came in the kit.  I used Close To My Heart mini pigment inks and randomly stamped the images. I used black embossing powder for the picture frames and a white gel pen to make the labels and spines on the books stand out.  I also used brown chalk ink around the edge of the lighter cardstock to distress it a little bit.  I added some string and fibers that I have had in my stash.  This was really easy and super fun to make!

I am entering this project into the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.
