So here's my bookmark that depicts the perfect spot to lounge and read a book:
The stamp is from the Beach Life stamp set. The background is a Cotton Candy Gelato blended across the top 3 quarters, and I added Soft Sand Shadow ink directly to the paper leaving a bit of white showing. Distress markers add some color to the image and Tiny Type stickers spell out the simple message.
Here's a card I threw together with pieces that weren't used on other projects. The sentiment had been stamped on Sticky Back canvas and left stuck to my desk until I had some inspiration. So I added it to the stamped background, machine stitched it down, added Lawn Trimmings twine and voila, quick and easy.
