I received from @kayrun! I got TWO bookmarks, and they check all of the boxes - yellow, quotes, and repurposed materials! These were made entirely from stash bits. :grinning:

I love the weaving techniques in these:


And additional goodies - look how cute that card and envelope are!

Thank you!!

glad the pkg got there without any damage –
The note cards & envelopes were from a previous swap, but I sadly did not write down who I got them from (I believe they were on offer in Shop the Swap a few years ago). If anyone recognizes them, please speak up :slight_smile:

I got my bookmark from curiousfae! It’s so beautifu! She nailed my most liked colors and patterns - bright rainbows on black backgrounds and organic/blobby/drippy vibes. The texture is also so satisfying to run my hand over. I love it! Thank you soo much! I’ll treasure it!

Woot! Glad you like it @LovelyMiss ! I also love all those colors so it was a joy to make.

I recd from
Wiccadwitch and tapestry!

From Wiccadwitch- she sent two!


First….
It’s a leathery(like) embossed paper with a bit of sparkle and the addition of the perfect little pentacle charm and tassle. Perfect for witchy reading. :mage:

The second….
do you see how the Luna moth sits a top the bookmark with opposable wings? He looks like he’s lit there to look over my shoulder at what I’m reading. What a clever design!

From tapestry

I adore the colors and the psychedelic shape with the moon. What a fun bookmark!

Thanks you two!

Love them all, but how clever is that Luna moth!! :exploding_head:
The details are fabulous in the embossed one, and the colors are excellent on the diamond painting one!

The magic 8 ball is clearly never wrong :wink:

My bookmark from @geekgirl safely made it across the sea, and it is so lovely, thank you!

She picked my theme of cosy reading/cats, and drew me this lovely bookcase scene:

And on the back added a quotation from my favourite author:

And thank you for rounding the corners for me :heart_eyes_cat: I am terribly uncoordinated and also fidgety, so I end up poking myself with pointy corner bookmarks :joy:

The bookmark came in this lovely card; I’d like to be in this cosy kitchen today.

Thank you Geekgirl, it is lovely.

Wow, this gallery is so fabulous, I’ve just been catching up, and I’m blown away!

@Bunny1kenobi - the s’mores are adorable, and the hippocampus is just wonderful!

@LovelyMiss - more gorgeous fabrics, so cute!

@Tapestry - the beta fish is exquisite, the woodblock style crow is so cool, and the tiny bookshelf has so much to discover!

@geekgirl - both fantastic - the way you did the graffiti style looks so good, and I love the cosy cat one! The handwriting style for the quote looks great too.

@kayrun - those weaving techniques are super cool, the textures look so nice to touch!

@curiousfae - the diamond designs are fab - I want to reach through the screen and pat them!

@WiccadWitch - wow that luna moth design is just fantastic! And the UFO one is awesome, I already bookmarked the post to try making my own version :space_invader:

@chameleonhound - the gradient pattern is so pretty, like a starry sky!

@jeanneleigh - those Discworld bookmarks are perfect, beautiful work!

Sorry if I missed any. They are all brilliant, what a great gallery this is :smile: I am feeling very hopeful about tomorrow’s mail delivery here in Australia, fingers crossed! :books:

@LovelyMiss the stargate shimmer is gel pen. The graffiti was fun to make. There are graffiti generators online - you can enter a word and pick a style and it will show you what it looks like. The card was a printable coloring page I colored with pencils.

@chameleonhound - yes! it’s the gate address for Earth

@bluebird those hedgehogs are so sweet

@Bunny1kenobi clever idea with the wallpaper and octopus! the kawaii smores are super cute

@LovelyMiss This speaks to me although mine is paper!

@Tapestry love the style of the corvid. very striking

@kayrun nice weaving technique. The card of the cozy kitchen was a printable coloring page that I colored with alcohol markers

@WiccadWitch love that alien bookmark!

@jeanneleigh love the discworld bookmarks!

The mail was very good to me today - two exciting envelopes! :smile:

@MamaRhi made a gorgeous nature-inspired bookmark, sent with beautiful card too. The artwork is glorious rich colours, the photo doesn’t really capture it :herb:

And @bluebird sent me this adorable and lively bird character, also with a lovely card. I love the personality of the little bird, and the quote from the Velveteen Rabbit :heart:

Thank you both so much, it was such lovely mail to receive on a very cold Monday!
