Bookmark challenge

 I made a bookmark for the challenge this week at Totally Stampalicious using one of the newest Bugaboo digi images turned into acrylic by TS. The challenge is to make a bookmark and I have been wanting to make some of the cool corner bookmarks I have been seeing around. There is a great tutorial on SCS by Beate Johns.
For my project, I used Bubble Bath Scarlette and Linen Closet papers by DCWV. The image was colored with Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol. Here is a shot of the bookmark inserted into a book to show how it works.
 All of the bubbles have lots of glitter added. I hear that reading in the bath is a relaxing past time but something I wouldn't know from personal experience. I would never take a book into the tub with me as I tend to get very sleep while reading....need I say more?

    That's a great idea for a bookmark. It's so nontraditional and pretty.
