Black and White, and One Other Colour

Guess what?  I think it's spring!  The weather finally shows promise, and the tulips are popping up.  I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Thanks for visiting today, and hopefully you can join in with the next challenge at DZ Doodles.  The DT,  has some fabulous creations to share, and once again, there's a free image up for grabs.  But it's only available for a limited time.

Now, how about Guess Who?, this adorable little stamp from DZ Doodles.  Do you remember playing this with your friends?  Boy, that's really going back!  lol  Going with the challenge theme, black & white & one other colour, I've made these bookmarks for my granddaughter.  Her family is moving at the end of this month...closer to us Hooray!!   As she's going to be having a little party, she'll be able to give these to her friends as a keepsake.

I've kept the design simple, so hopefully they will stand the test of time.  We don't want them falling apart, but we would like them to be used.  Just black cardstock and one sheet of polka dot DP.  I've used a Nestie die and partially cut around the image.  A MS punch gives a bit of excitement to the bottom edge.  The DP is also used on the back of the bookmark, to cover the folded corners.
