Hello friends! Ericka from Strangely Creative here, and today, I’m excited to share a fun mixed media project—creating a vibrant and playful bookmark using the Library Cubes stamp set by Stampotique Katzelkraft. If you’re a fan of books, bookmarks, and a little creativity, this is the perfect project to try!
I started by stamping the adorable stack of books from the Library Cubes set. To give them life and personality, I used my favorite Spectrum Noir Watercolor markers.
These markers give the books that perfect blend of bold color and
watercolor softness, ideal for a whimsical, yet artistic feel. Once the
books dried, I masked them off to keep them protected while working on
the background. Masking helps give the books the pop they deserve!
For the background, I wanted something subtle yet textured. I reached for the Studio Light Background 2 stamp and paired it with Portobello Versafine Clair ink. This ink gives such a rich and detailed impression—perfect for adding layers to mixed media projects.
No bookmark is complete without an inspiring word! Using the Darkroom Door Small Sketched Alphabet set, I stamped the word "READ" in big, bold letters. It’s a great reminder of what this bookmark is all about. To blend everything together, I lightly sponged some Lavinia Mermaid ink onto the background, adding a soft splash of color. This ink is perfect for layering, and it gives the bookmark a dreamy, almost underwater vibe.
For a final bit of fun, I added a few AALL & Create rub-ons. These are a great way to introduce a pop of color or a quirky detail that pulls the whole design together.
And voilà! A fun and easy mixed media bookmark that’s perfect for any book lover. Whether you’re gifting it to a fellow reader or keeping it for your own page-turning adventures, this bookmark will definitely add a touch of creative flair to your reading time.
Until next time, happy crafting!
