Bookmarks XLVIII: Foil in the Fall

I picked up one of Repeat Impression's vertical stamps at the Southfield, MI Stamp & Scrap Art Tour show this weekend, and almost immediately inked it up and stamped it to show it in Sunday's (late) State of the Stash.

(As I link to it, I realize that maybe I should have bought it online... it's one of the vertical stamps on sale this month! Oh well, I'm sure shipping would have eaten up the savings.)

In fact, it didn't take much more than that to work up this bookmark. I took the stamped-and-emobossed leaves, a neutral strip of cardstock with a bunch of gold and bronze and copper smudged on, and some of the acorn-y paper I used on the squirrel bookmark, and bam! Simple but effective, and undeniably seasonal.

I'm entering this leafy bookmark in the following challenges:

Supplies: (foiled acorn paper is from DCWV's Autumn Melody matstack)

  2. Hi! Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving your comment on my bookmark. The bling on it is just for decoration, it is a magnetic bookmark (there's a magnet on the inside of the front and on the inside of the back) so it "clips" over your page... as long as your decoration isn't thicker than the magnets it doesn't even slip! Here's a link to a tutorial if you're interested Donna ☺
