This last weekend was the Christmas Market here in Lincoln. I wanted to go on Thursday but the weather was foul so we ended up going on Saturday. It was very busy but I got some photos and it was fun looking at all the craft stalls. I saw some of these wooden ornaments for sale but none were stamped so I thought I would share mine with you.

I am thinking of taking a stall next year in the craft section of the market and wanted your opinion on my projects. Do you think these ornaments are good enough to sell and secondly do you think anyone would buy them?

I got these blank ornaments on Amazon and stamped them using Stazon ink. They are coloured in using our Stampin’ Write Markers. I used a Signa Uniball white pen to colour the trims white. I did stamp both sides of them so they look pretty from any angle.

Birds of A Feather – Magnetic Bookmark

I have a great little project to share with you today. This is a magnetic bookmark using the fun and cheerful Birds of a Feather stamp set from Stampin’ Up!. If you haven’t seen this stamp set, you really must take a peek. It is fun without being tacky or rude.

I love this little chick. He is cute and dinky. I’ve coloured him in using the Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers. It’s really simple colouring to give a great effect. I’ve stamped the chick on whisper white and then fussy cut him out so that you won’t see any of the bleed-through from the markers. I used a small pair of magnetic sheets that I got online for the magnetic closure.

If you know anyone like me who is in love with books, then this would be a great little stocking stuffer. You could also add it as an extra handmade surprise if you are giving them a special book.

I’ve done two versions of this bookmark, one with rounded edge and one without. Which do you like best? Let me know below.
