The challenge this week at Just Rite Stampers is to make a bookmark, a perfect challenge for a little birthday gift I need for a friend this weekend. She loves to read, so a new bookmark and gift card will make a perfect present!
I used the Just Rite Stamp set called By the Sea. I got this wonderful set a while back and this was my first chance to ink it up!
The image is colored with Copics and I used a white gel pen to highlight the waves. I stamped the sentiment on Kraft with red ink. The layout for my card is Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #74. I added stitching around the edges, added a little lace, and a charm tied on with twine.
On the inside I made a little pocket to hold a Barnes & Noble gift card and used a sentiment from the Just Rite sentiment set, Just a Note. 
I mounted my bookmark on a thin piece of chipboard. I used paper to coordinate with the card. I used the lighthouse image from the By the Sea set. I added a little more twine, sewing, and some ribbon at the top.Hope you are having a good week. Thanks for stopping by,
Melody
