For this blog hop, I used the stamp set to create a lovely bookmark. I’ve been reading a lot of books lately so I really enjoy creating my own bookmarks to keep track of my readying process.

What a great idea to make yourself a bookmark! Wish I’d thought of that. I so often need one & rip a piece of scrap paper & use it. You just inspired me to make a few for myself & several friends who like to read as well. Thanks!

happy with any.

Great idea!! I never thought of that. I don’t know if there is a flower that they haven’t done. Maybe a gardenia. I love their smell. I have a bush in our front yard. I am hoping it will grow real large!! 🙂

I have no clue about flowers, so I can’t contribute to the future release idea pool :-p I like the flowers that have good foliage – that makes the set more versatile!

Being an avid reader PLUS zinnia grower I really like your pretty bookmark! I grew ten large pots of zinnias this summer (from seeds) in my back yard. It was my first time to grow them and I fell in love with their large colorful blooms plus how easy to grow they were (AND they attract butterflies). It was also nice having fresh flower bouquets of them in the house plus to give to friends. So this new Altenew set definitely wants to come to my house to live! 😉

I love your bookmark. It’s perfect. I think I should make some from beautiful Altenew flowers for my book club. I love Lily of the Valley, but don’t know how well that would work for a layering design.

I love bookmarks! Practical art is my favorite, which is why I like cards: I have something useable at the end of a crafting session. I also like the dots in the background; they make for a lovely base on which to put the flower and leaves. Thanks for sharing!
