SHOPPING OUR STASH #454 - Back to the Books

 

Hello and welcome, crafty friends!

We have a fun new challenge starting at SHOPPING OUR STASH:

Back to the Books! 

Anything related to books, reading, or even using a page from a book

or text design paper on your projects can be used.

I decided to make a few bookmarks, upcycling some old

library checkout cards that were gifted to me by my teammate Mimi!

I stamped flower images on opposite corners, colored them with

Prismacolor pencils, sponged some ink around the edges, and added

glitter glue to the centers of some of the flowers. My neighbor

has a laminating machine and she let me use it to laminate these cards.

Added some ribbon and twine and these babies were done!

Here are some close ups:

I also stamped and colored on the back sides:

I hope that you'll join us for our Back to the Books challenge

what my teammates have created to wow you!
