Step 1 of 7

Trim a piece of white card 2 1/2" in width and as long as you want the bookmark to be, taking in to account the size of the IMALA stamp.

Step 2 of 7

Use the banner punch on one end. 

Step 3 of 7

Spritz the IZINK sprays on to your glass mat then "smoosh" the bookmark in to the ink, creating your inky  background. 

Step 4 of 7

Stamp your IMALA image in Midnight, on to your bookmark, before setting it to one side to dry. 

Step 5 of 7

Trim and punch a piece of vellum the same size as your bookmark. 

Step 6 of 7

Wipe over the vellum with your anti-static bag before stamping the sentiment in the sticky WOW embossing ink, down the left side. Tip the embossing powder over the stamped sentiment, shaking the excess powder back in to the pot. Once your heat tool is hot, heat set the powder moving the heat tool as soon as the powder starts to turn. 

Step 7 of 7

To finish, punch a hole in the top of the bookmark and vellum and attach a tassel or ribbon .
