Reading Bookmark

When younger in elementary school I use to read all the Nancy Drew & Hardy Boy books. Liked Hardy Boy stories better.

Finished Jane Eyre. It was not the easiest of book to get into but I did manage to read all of it. Finished Mary Higgins Clark book "Daddy's Little Girl" which was a bit scary. Started reading MHC "I'll Be Seeing You." Any fans of MHC books?

Stamped with Tim Holtz alpha letters to spell 'Reading.' Used MISTI tool but did not put letters on straight; instead they go up & then down, so that's my story & I'm sticking to it.

Used gold ink on edges. Added some recycled gold twine.
