Give Thanks Bookmark Set

 

Hi Friends!

This week at the Stamp Simply blog, the Stamp Simply Design Team have been sharing bookmarks.  Bookmarks make great gifts along with a book or you can also use them as tags.  

If you have not had a chance to check out my Sister DT cards yet, I hope you will do so- fabulous inspiration from all!

I love creating fall cards and decided to pull out the Give Thanks stamp set, pair it with the Craft Consortium Brick Textures 6x6 Paper Pad and the Tim Holtz Tag Collection dies to make a few fall bookmarks.  

To create this set of bookmarks:

Trim three pieces of black cardstock to 2 ¼” x 11”. 

Place the Tim Holtz medium tag die onto the cardstock and allow a bit of the bottom of the die to be outside of the cutting plates before running the die through the machine. 

Trim the edges of the tag/bookmark to match the die cut edges.

De-static the lower part of the designer paper with an embossing powder tool, ink the verse sentiment from Give Thanks with Versafine Onyx Black ink, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

De-static a piece of white cardstock with an embossing powder tool, ink the leaf image from the Give Thanks stamp set with Versafine Onyx Black ink, stamp onto the prepared cardstock, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Watercolor the image using water-based markers and die cut with the coordinating die.

Cut two additional leaves from white cardstock, layer behind the colored image.

Mount the leaves onto the bookmarks with dimensional foam,

Add a looped piece of the beige striped ribbon and tie with a piece of linen thread to finish off the bookmarks.
