I Love Birds Bookmark





I made this bookmark from two altered poker chips and a wooden spoon. I used mod podge to attach a paper punched circle from a damaged book into the inverted center of the chip. The bird designs are from an inchies sheet I purchased from Deviant Scrap (Tumblefish Studio). Color was added to the designs with watercolor crayons and acrylic paints. Varnish was applied as a sealant. A wooden spoon (dyed with alcohol inks) is nestled between the chips. This slips into the book to hold your place while the poker chips rest on the top of of the pages. The poker chips are embellished with washi tape and the word fly was added.

I would like to enter this bookmark in the following challenges:

Addicted to Stamps (10) - #96 anything goes  
Creative Fingers - #37 anything goes
Brown Sugar - #95 anything goes
Scribble+Scrap - #19 anything goes
613 Avenue Create - #73 anything goes
