After a brief hiatus - I'm happy to back at the tea parties!
Today it's about cats and books - and if we choose our creations are going to Virginia - who has several health issues going on in her life right now and could use some cheering.
So I made a bookmark with a cat on it! I hope Virginia still reads some 'paper' books as I understand she loves her Kindle too!! If not - she can just prop this up by her reading lamp to enjoy!
First I cut a piece of white 5 1/4 x 3. I stamped the cute kitty by Whipper Snapper and colored her with Copics. Then I sponged over the whole panel with Bundled Sage and Tumbled Glass distress inks. I stamped Virginia along the top using the Victorian Alphabet by Waltzingmouse
I trimmed the top corners, layered it to a slightly larger green avocado panel, punched a hole at the top and looped through two pieces of wrinkled seam tape!

OMG! A bookmark! Genius! No matter if she reads real books or not Julia! She will love this because she loves books. I love the way you personalized it as well.......however.....
girlfriend, I know you have been gone from the teaparties for awhile, we have missed you! But, dude....we were supposed to take the rat chasing outa Lizzy.....did you not read that part? Snort! How was the swim in the moat? Did you see any creatures? And the back door? Kinda dark and damp back there? Giggle!
just between you and me, gotta love a teapotter that tests the boundaries! Snort! Virginia will get such a kick out of this awesome bookmark! Good to see you! Welcome back, now lets go get you a *dry* cookie!
