Hmm...does this title even make sense? Well, maybe it will in a moment. You see, I have a very dear step-mom who is celebrating her birthday tomorrow. She LOVES to read...and I mean, she is curled up in a book every chance that she gets. So when Papertrey came out with a set for the booklover in your life, I just HAD to have it. :) They also released a bookmark die...and the wheels began a-turnin'!
Wanna see??
Oh my goodness, I just love it! All things shabby and pretty and feminine. Just like her! And the sentiment...absolute perfection, LOL! You see why I just couldn't pass it up?
And the matching card...oh yes...
I would LOVE to make more of these! I'm thinking about making some replicas and putting them in my Etsy shop...I haven't had anything in there for a while! Oh! And I was very mindful when creating the bookmarks, that they would be in a book...that's why the lack of heavy embellishments. :)
All the stamps are from Papertrey, except the Happy Birthday sentiment...from my favorite TE set, CreativiTEA.
Thanks so much for looking...and liking?? :)

Gorgeous giftie set!!
Oh my goodness Melissa!! How absolutely clever and charming!! LOVE the bookmark with the lace trim! And your card is just fantastic!! LOVE these!!
Hey Melissa, thanks for your note! I went there on Friday, I did visit the TE booth and saw Taylor, but everyone seem to be very busy so I did not interupt. I should have at least say 'Hi' to you if I gotta this note earlier, sorry about that!
I love the bookmark you made for your step-mom, it is a pretty set, also the pretty gift pack, I am sure the girls would be so happy when they received a pretty gift like these. Thanks for sharing, I always admired your beautiful creations!
This is perfect Melissa! I am sure she will love it. My mo has a Nook so no bookmark needed. LOL :)
superbe bravo md
Melissa,
This card and bookmark are both Beautiful!!! I have this set too and I love the way you added the lace to the bookmark. Also, the different papers you used on the card. I follow your blog and love all your creations. Thanks for sharing.
darling set, Melissa!
Beautiful set Melissa! The floral vintage papers, lace, buttons and stitching are all so lovely!
Thanks for the inspiration! I'm going to try a masculine version of this for my father-in-law. He loves to read, too.
You make such lovely cards!
