Bookmark for a Little Boy..

Hello out there, this Sunday morning.  Hope you are doing fine and your weekend is going well! 


Here's a bookmark for my grandson, who turned 7 last week.....hence no ribbons, bows etc., and just in case their new pup finds this to be edible, the only bling I could add was stickles!  I made some bookmarks for his sister's birthday party earlier this year, so I thought he might like one of his own. 

This little scarecrow image is one from Dustin Pike, who has many cute images suitable for a little boy.  Coloured with water colours, inspiration came from the many challenges out there this week looking for a fall/harvest theme or colours.  Of course, I thought I would whip this up quickly as I had made some before.....wrong again!  It took me much longer than it should have....especially if Farley gets hold of it!

A couple of those challenges I was mentioning:
Dustin Pike - All Things Shiny
Little Red Wagon - #103 Fall Theme
The Paper Shelter - #36 Harvest theme
C.R.A.F.T. Challenge - #125 Autumn
Deep Ocean Challenge - #10 Fall Colours
Wags 'n Whiskers Rubber Stamps - #65 Fall Colors
Fussy and Fancy  - "3 B's!" - Black, Border Punch, Bling
PaperPlay Challenges - #42 Use Black
Paper Sundaes - #92 Sundae Bar (Black, Sparkle)

    Absolutely adorable Joyce, he's going to love it! Hopefully, he'll take good care of it and Farley won't get it.
