More Saturated Canary Bookmarks/ Tags

Hello, all! I think we all have friends who are avid readers and there are times when a small, inexpensive gift is called for.  In such cases, I like to give handmade book marks sometimes accompanied by a reading light.  You know, the kind that clips on to the book itself?

Here are some cute bookmarks I made for a recent challenge at the Saturated Canary.  I made several and chose the one I liked best to enter into the challenge.  These were the rejects, though I really like them all.  I just liked these a teensy bit less than the one I entered. These would make cute gift tags too with different sentiments, of course. All of the images are by Krista Smith. It's probably pretty evident that I have an unabashed adoration of her adorable characters and for that, I make no apologies! LOL! She has a new release coming out next Wednesday and I can't wait to see the new digis!

This is the front and back of the first one.  

I didn't photograph the back of this one because it is unadorned. 

And here's the third one. I entered this in the Copics/Promarkers challenge at The Outlawz where the theme is favorite color combinations.

Today's post is short and sweet.  I have some errands to run and phone calls to make today before I go to a flute concert at the local library this evening.  My brother-in-law's fiance is playing with her flute group.  I love flute music... well, to be more accurate, with only a very few exceptions, I love music... period!

I'm going to have a rather busy weekend so I don't know yet if I'll have time to post a new project but I'll try.  So, until next time....

Happy crafting!

Saturated Canary Bookmark

Good morning, my crafty friends!

Today, I have for you a bookmark I created specifically for the Saturated Canary Challenge for which the current theme is... you guessed it... bookmarks! I actually created 4 of them so this is just the first one.  Some of the photos didn't turn out as well as I want so I will retake them before I post the others on my blog.

This little sweetheart is called "Nevaeh". Isn't she just precious?

I left the back unadorned so that a personal message can be written there.  I have several friends who are avid readers and they'll probably end up with these cute bookmarks. I think they make a nice little, inexpensive gift and are much nicer than the ones you can buy in the stores.

Supplies:

"Nevaeh" digi stamp - Saturated Canary
Coordinations Cardstock - Spring Green
Patterned Paper - K & Company Portabello Road Collection
Copics
Alphabet Stickers - from my stash
Gingham Ribbon - Michael's
Heart Stamp - WOW Gratitude set
Border punch - Martha Stewart
Ribbons and trims - from my stash but most likely from Michael's and Jo-Ann.

I am entering this project in the following challenges:

Saturated Canary Challenge - #18 Bookmarks

So there you have it!  That's my project for today.  I'll be back again tomorrow with another Saturated Canary card.  I am just so into coloring these beautiful little creatures that magically flow from the tip of Krista's pen that you'll likely see a few more before you see anything non-SC! LOL! I hope you don't mind.  So, until next time...

Happy crafting!
