For a bookworm like me, this is a perfect challenge, and I knew right away what I wanted to do! My granddaughter Addy will be starting kindergarten in another month and she LOVES books too, so I thought a set of bookmarks would be a fitting send-off for school this Fall!
I used PTI's Basic Bookmark Dies and an unbranded stamp set from our local dollar store to create this fun little bookmark with the books and bespectacled little worm. I colored the worm with my Copics and also the ribbon marker, and then left the rest of the design black & white. There were 3 different worms in the set, so I made 3 different (but the same) bookmarks:
The sentiments also came with the set. They're very simple but I really like how they turned out and I think my granddaughter will love them too! The worms are all pop dotted for dimension, and I used red, blue, and green embroidery floss for the tassels.

Cute, cute, cute!! Love these adorable tags! Thanks from another bookworm for the wonderful inspiration:)
Oh my gosh ... these tags are ADORABLE, Marcia! Your colouring of the book worm is just perfect (love those pink cheeks!). Great sentiments for all the tags! Congrats on being GD for Tag, You're It! xx
How CUTE are these little fellas! Addy is going to love these Marcia, they're extra sweet!
Oh Marcia, these little book worms are adorable ... in every guise! Love how you kept the colouring to them and the tiny red ribbon peeking out of a book ... they so pop against the line art! Your graddaughter will love them, my friend! Hugs, Anita :)
I love each one of your wonderful bookmarks, Marcia! Those worms are adorable, especially highlighted like you did with the focal coloring! Addy will love them - such a big girl going off to kindergarten!
Those bookworms are absolutely adorable, Marcia. I can't believe you found them in a dollar store. I love how you left the rest of the stamping in black and white to let him shine. Thanks for being our guest designer for this challenge.
Marcia your three bookworm tags are all so cute! Thank you so much for being our guest this challenge, and the next one too! xo
