Fairy Orbs & Fairy Hugs

I've been busy with work and on my days off, I'm not feeling very creative. But Lavinia World is now carrying a new line of stamps - Fairy Hugs . They are not part of the Lavinia Stamps line - they are their own fantastic collection !! I was lucky enough to be sent several to create with and I decided to make a few bookmarks. I used the  Fairy Orbs stamps by Lavinia World along with several of the new Fairy Hugs stamps listed below .

 .

• Fairy Hugs Stamps -    Net, Mini Oyster, Mini Nautilus, Mini Turtle, and Mini Shell
• Lavinia World Stamp -  Fairy Orbs

I stamped the net twice on watercolor paper and then cut them into 4 bookmarks.  The Mini Fairy Hugs stamps were also stamped on watercolor paper, then fussy-cut. The Fairy Orbs were stamped on various scraps of Lavinia World papers and then cut out or paper-punched .  I adhered nautical-themed washi to the left edge of each bookmark.  The shells, turtle and fairy orbs were adhered to the bookmarks with thin foam tabs. They add a bit of dimension to the bookmarks but aren't too thick when you close a book on them .. On the backs of the bookmarks, I adhered lined paper and more nautical washi . I like to keep track of books I've read or sometimes characters in books  and I can easily do this on the backs of these bookmarks ..

I had such fun making these bookmarks !! Thanks again to Lavinia World for allowing me to work with these new Fairy Hugs stamps. Take a look at these and all of the wonderful products here . I was Guest Designer for Lavinia World in June and will be back for their first challenge in August.
