A Corner Bookmark!

Good afternoon, hope all is well with you!  I was requested to make a corner bookmark by my daughter.  Now this might seem very normal to you, BUT, Sabrina does not read!  She hates it in fact.  It is a complete ordeal to get her to read when she’s in school.  So, when she asked me I almost fainted.  She has decided to read the Harry Potter books, and boy did she jump right in.  She started yesterday morning, and is almost finished with the 1st one!  So, here is the bookmark she asked for.

Crafts-and-me-bookmark

She chose this image from Crafts and Me.  She is called Forever Rose.  She also requested the hair be like that.  She also chose the papers.  The challenge on the Crafts and Me challenge blog is to add a flower.  I’m also entering this into the following challenges:

Your Next Stamp Challenge-3 embellishments, 2 papers, 1 image

Clear It Out-anything goes (I used old paper)

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

SSD’s Monthly Christmas Challenge

Good morning to you, hope all is  well.  It’s the first of the month and that means it’s time for another Holiday Challenge at SSDRegan has given us a tough one this time-at least for me.  We are supposed to use a non holiday image to make a Christmas card.  This was definitely a challenge for me.  I used the Reading Rachel image from the I’m Every Woman Collection.

SSD-july-xmas

The sketch is from Sketches by Carly.  I have to admit, I really enjoyed making a Christmas card, when there was no pressure.  You have a whole month to play along, so make sure you link up your creation, for a chance to win some SSD images.

It’s digi day at Stamp Something today.  The challenge is easy-just use a digi image.  I used the image Pedi Party from the I’m every woman collection.  The sketch is from Deconstructed Sketches.
