Bookmark Design: Beatrix Potter from Nicecrane Designs

Hello!  I hope that you all have had a good week thus far. 

Today I am posting a couple of bookmarks that I made using designs from Nicecrane Designs.  I thought that they'd make a cute gift accompanied by a stuffed animal or even a Beatrix Potter book itself.

I decided that given the sadness of the last couple weeks with the loss of my mother in law, that I was due for some silliness; so, I photographed each of the bookmarks with some friends of mine.

  

BOOKMARK 1

General Notes:

• Meet Valentine.  He recently had a bath so he is nice and clean.  He was a gift that my hubby gave me for our very first Valentine's Day as a married couple which means Valentine will be 25 years old on the fourteenth of February.  He still has a very special place in my heart. 
• I figured I better show you a closer picture of the bookmark as well...

BOOKMARK 2

General Notes:

• Meet Quack.  He was a gift from my parents when I was a teenager.  Goodness, he is even older than Valentine.  I don't remember specifically when I got him but I'm going to guess that I was about fifteen.  
• Here is a closer picture of this one as well...

Digital Image Details: 

• Beatrix Potter Bookmarks:  Both of these bookmarks were created with templates from the Beatrix Potter Bookmark set.  For this first one, I used the image you see second in from the right of the preview below.  The second bookmark was created using the last one on the right.  Click on the name or the watermark below to take you to its location in the store.

OVERALL
Paper Products:

• The base of each of the bookmarks was created with Michael's Recollection's Cardstock,white.

Ribbon:

• The ribbon used on both bookmarks is Crafts brand and was purchased at Dollarama. 

Punch:

• I used a star shaped Crafts brand punch, also purchased at Dollarama, to create the hole in each bookmark.

Before I go...
Once again I thought I would share another wonderful set available at Nicecrane's Designs.  Sticking with the Beatrix Potter theme, check out these cool Beatrix Potter Thank You Cards.  This set contains four vintage images perfect for card and ATC design.  Be sure to go and check them out while you are at the store (click on image below to head to its location).

Don't forget, to stay current on ALL the latest releases and to check out the fabulous inspiration from my fellow DT members, be sure to head over to the Nicecrane Designs blog.

I am so happy that you had a chance to pop by and check out my latest creation.  This weekend it is all about catching up and taking care of my neglected teams.  Lots to do!  I will definitely be back on Sunday when it is time for the new challenge to start over at The 12 Months of Christmas and also the midway for Scribbles Designs.  See you all in a couple days.

Until next time,
