Bookmark

Now this nearly did not get made. Version one ended in disaster (coloured beautifully plus added a name on the reverse with die cut letters and the whole thing got jammed in my laminator). So after much gnashing of teeth and burning of fingers (the two rollers in the machine were a tad hot) I and the husband mended said laminator so I could then get on and make bookmark version 2.

I'd decided to make a bookmark for the Passion For Promarkers challenge which is:

Books

And I knew the image I wanted to use - it is a freebie from Dustin Pike.
This bookmark is double sided - the same image is on the reverse - and coloured entirely with Promarkers and then laminated. So nothing fancy and it is for Samuel to use in his school books or at home as I hope it will encourage him more.

And for his teachers to ask where he got it from.....

    Great colouring with the Promarkers Ruth. I have gotten my crafty items stuck in the laminator before. So annoying.x
