Like any avid reader, I collect books and adore anything related to books! So it's no surprise that I have always enjoyed pretty bookmarks and have been making them for as long as I can remember. I smile thinking about my parents who grew up during the depression. They often used kleenex, an old envelope, or anything handy for their bookmarks. They fostered my love of reading at a very early age, so these bookmark cards are another way I honor them. By creating them with my own two hands, I'm not contributing to the glut of Chinese manufactured stuff we seem to be spending so much money on these days.
Make a bookmark card or two, or three... or lots and send them to friends and relative for a lovely way to let them know you are thinking of them. I've recently sent bookmark cards to my Great Nieces and now I'm going to send some to the ladies in my Bible Study.
These two bookmark cards were made the ultra gorgeous Beautiful Gallery Designer Series Paper. The Spotlight on Nature dies provide all the additional embellishments needed for a beautiful card for a friend to cherish.
