NOEL Word Play and Bookmarks




I've enjoyed playing with my ODBD bookmark dies and stamps.


This was created for a dear friend~







I'm submitting this to


ODBDSLC184  N-O-E-L Word Play


 This week's challenge is: NOEL Word Play (use items beginning with each letter in noel to create your card or project) eg. N- notions, nestabilities, negative O- oval or circle shape, olive, old E- embossing, embellishments, eggplant (color), envelope L-Lace, layered, letterpress



N-negative snowflake
O-older paper (2009) & ornate (the most ornate paper I have!)
E-elegant (the most elegant/matchy-matchy stamps I have)
L-long and lean card





Here is a simpler card with a removable bookmark also~



It's fun to roll bookmarks out of my Big Shot when I don't have the time to design a card..but still want to create.


Those longer cereal/cake mix boxes are treasures for cutting out thicker bookmarks.


This fantastic idea inspired me two years ago~it's from a

Make It Monday tutorial by Erin.



It makes a die cut more substantial~almost more of a gift!


~Now I have bookmarks ready for cards~


Have a blessed day friends~enjoy this last week before Christmas!



stamps: ODBD Bookmarks-Snowflakes, ODBD Snowy Blessings
(Card 2~Stampendous Jumbo Cling Snowflake Trio)
die: ODBD Bookmark Dies

  2. Card and bookmark = fabulous! You've sparked more ideas for my *please make 90 tags* request from my sister-in-law, that I"m trying feverishly to fulfill. Bookmarks are 'kind of tags' (in the world of just me: c, they are...), soooo...may have to ponder some strategies. Cereal boxes, yesssss!! LOVE this!
