Bookmarks for Colour Me...!

My son is really enjoying reading these days. His favourite is the Geronimo Stilton series and has a few of them on the go. I thought it might be fun to whip him up some cute little bookmarks with this week's Colour Me...! colours.

I started out with 2" strips in both Midnight Muse and Tangerine Tango. I punched the tops with the Scalloped Tags Topper Punch. The background on the white panel is the Dictionary background stamp. The images are from the Cool Kid stamp set in the Occasions catalogue. I just love the Cool Kid stamp set! What a great combination of fun sayings and playful images for little munchkins!

Fun tidbit... My boy might be a "cool kid", but his mom sure has some issues! haha. Yes, that's right, I stamped it upside down. Not once, but twice. Yup, twice! ;)

Check out the challenge this week:

We can't wait to see what you come up with this week!

Thanks for stopping by!

I kept the design fairly simple for this card. I really wanted the focus to be the big, Island Indigo bow! I used the Dictionary background stamp for one of the first times! LOVE this big background stamps. A few pearls added for good measure, et voila!
