Bookmark Simon
Hi everyone, it’s Shari here with some Ranger product inspiration.
You know how I LOVE layers… I’ve created some fun bookmarks using a few Distress Paint techniques. My inspiration comes from BACK TO SCHOOL as my boys head off for their last semester of Jr. college. Also I want to remind you to bookmark the new Simon blog. I’ve made it easy if you want to grab the QR code on you mobile device, all you need is a bar-code scanner app. and direct your camera at the code on the photo below.
The bookmarks I’ve created can be a starting point for backgrounds of cards and journal pages, once you get started, it’s hard to stop!
I covered the fronts with a piece of acetate to protect the ink from accidental spills and moisture.
I put together a video for you showing the process. Enjoy!
Thanks for stopping by, have a great day!
I loved seeing you pair up the paints with the stains, Shari! So cool! Awesome bookmarks! :)
Fun video and technique. Love how the paint resists.
Super tutorial on those distress inks. I bookmarked the new blog, too! Thanks Shari!
Great bookmarks. Love the video tutorial.
Great techniques for us to use. I was at book club yesterday and now I’m inspired to make bookmarks for everyone for our next meeting. Thanks for the great video!!!!
My son thinks Simon is the cutest dog ever! (And Mannie the cutest cat ever since he makes an appearance every so often in stamps, too…) :)
Lovely bookmarks and great technique with paint and distress inks! Simon looks ready to read! He is adorable! Thank you for the video!
Cool design Shari!
when ever I watch your videos I just want to go play!

Now, I am going to have to get those great paints, and some stains. Such inspiration, too lovely to pass up. LOL
As always, I love your video and the cool bookmarks. Every once in a while, I make a bookmark for someone instead of a birthday card – always fun. I love the techniques you used and am going to give them a whirl!! Thank you!
What a fantastic idea. thanks for sharing.
ADORABLE….I have to make these for my Great Niece and Nephew….I’m not just a Good Aunt; I’m a Great Aunt. Love them. thanks for sharing!
Great use of the stains. Thanks for a great video
Thank you for the video. The book marks are adorable. I know my grand daughter who loves to read would love these bookmarks.
Cute bookmarks. Love that little pup.
I love all your layers and mix of products. And that acetate layer is inspired!
Love this idea. I did not know the paints worked like this. I will have to figure out which ones to get now.. Great project love bookmarks. (miss them with my kindle)
Now I need more stains and some of those paints – I love how they layered together so well and never knew the paints would resist like that! Really cool effect. Thanks for sharing the video!
Awesome techniques…thank you! Love the bookmarks.
Loving the bookmark and isn’t he cute! x
i am really starting to like stencils more and more. great tutorial, thanks
how fun for a good book.
great idea to add the acrylic. love the design of the BG.
Wonderful post! I really like this cute Simon bookmarked. Also, thanks for the video tutorial where you shared the process of this bookmark. I think other students will love the bookmark style. Anyway, I have also found another useful educational resource here https://eduzaurus.com/free-essay-samples/books/ where they share essay examples about books that can help me to write my academic essay on this topic. I love paper books and bookmarks, I love reading books and such types of educational blogs to enhance my knowledge. So I appreciate the author for this interesting share for students.
