The Our Daily Bread Designs Shining Light Challenge this week is to make a bookmark.
It took me forever to make this bookmark! It wasn't the actual making of the bookmark that was so hard - it was the thought process! I haven't made a bookmark since I was in grade school so it stumped me for awhile. I like the results and I can't wait to start using it (I think it work better than the scrap paper or tissue paper I normally use).

This is just beautiful. I love this pretty paper. It looks so modern and stylish. Especially with zebra print being so popular in purses right now. Even the black leaves stand out in perfect contrast. This would be so pretty as a gift. Love it.

I know what you mean Nancy. I spend more time trying to make something that should only take 1/2 hour and it ends up 2 hours and I can't figure out why!! Your bookmark is beautiful. The zebra print and awesome bow top it off! Great and original work as always sis!

Wowzers, Nancy this is amazing! Love the elegant ribbon on top. I think that I'll have to make up a bookmark for each of my offspring and their SO's. TFS
