I have a Bookmark Card using the new For The Books Stamp set as the highlight. The basics are pretty simple and offer so many ways to decorate. This is a case from Connie Stewart and is fairly quick to make.

STAMPS
There are actually two different stamp sets used on today’s card. First is the new For The Books set. These stacked books on the front, along with the adorable glasses, are from the stamp set. I also added additional books on the inside as well as a fun sentiment from the set. Plus the bookmark itself has a funny sentiment that is perfectly fitting.
The front sentiment is from the Labeled With Love stamp set. This set has some “go to” stamps for me. The front one is one of those, as is the inside Happy Birthday. It is small and a nice mix of fonts. Here are the other two views of this card.

The addition of the strip of the DSP helps give the books a shelf to sit on. And I love that fun 5 star rating!

The DSP is added to all aspects of the card, including the bookmark. And this is another of the fun sentiments from the For The Books stamp set.
PAPERS
This card base was pulled from the DSP of course. The base is Basic Beige, which is a fabulous Neutral to have on hand. But the star is this Timeless Plaid Designer Series Paper. Sadly it is still out of stock, but supposed to be back before long. I added a layer of Boho Blue cardstock behind the front DSP and to back the books on the front.
EXTRAS
There are several Extras today. First is the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder on the front bookmark holder. I felt this was appropriate to pair with the DSP. Next is the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch for the stack of books. I also punched from Boho Blue and cut that piece in half to act as a layer behind the White. It needed a bit of color to stand out some.
To finish off the bookmark, I used one of the Postage Stamp Dies to cut the bookmark sentiment. And added the Beige and Wild Wheat Ribbon as the ribbon pull. Finally, because there really were a lot of extras, the bling is a trio of the 2024-2026 Shimmer Gems.
