Summer Of Colors - Week 3

Dear friends,
We are progressing with our third week @ Summer Of Colors Challenge. This week, Kristin of Twinkle Twinkle has chosen Baseball Nut ice-cream as our flavor/color prompt. So berry-licious. 

Week 3 Inspiration: Baseball Nut ice-cream

The completed project: Berry-licious Bookmarks!

I'm using mostly ribbons and lace made of silk, velvet and cotton materials. Metal embellishments are beads from old bracelet and old earrings. These bookmarks are fun no-stitch project and took about two hours to ensemble. 


Used jewelry making tools to attach the little beads and charms to the ribbon-bookmarks. They are heavy enough to hold the bookmark in-place (stay flat across the pages).

Another fun project to make this week! :). Until then, happy creating.

Hugs,
Shahrul
