Avante-Garden Book Mark

One thing I am doing with my classes this term is to include one card/item made with a Sale-a-bration item.
For the class at the end of the month, a book mark made using the Avante-Garden stamp set is included as a bonus, along with the 4 Beautiful You cards.

A 2 by 6" piece of watercolour paper is stamped with 2 flower images  using Basic Gray Archival ink.  It is the coloured with ink pads and an aqua painter.
The background is then stamped in Marina Mist using the "dot" stamp
Stamp the image on a 1 by 2 1/4" piece of Marina Mist, and notch both ends.  Adhere at top of book mark.
Insert lace ribbon through punch hole and tie some thick Baker's twine around it. Fray the ends. Make a bow with the Baker's twine and add with a glue dot.

Inks: Basic Gray Archival, Sweet Sugarplum, Rich Razzleberry, Old Olive, Marina Mist
