Bookmark with Perfectly Preserved

I was asked to make bookmarks for an upcoming Ladies Breakfast. The theme is the fruits of the spirit. I came up with all kinds of ideas, but I kept coming back to actual fruit. I went to my stamp sets and came across Perfectly Preserved from several years ago.

Here is what I did ... (products mentioned by name with capital letters are from Stampin' Up!)

I typed the Bible verse into Word and spaced the verse four times across lengthwise on the screen and printed onto white cardstock.

I cut the cardstock into 6" x 2" pieces and punched one end with the Scallop Tag Punch.

I stamped the pear directly onto the cardstock with Garden Green and Hello Honey.

I stamped the jar onto a transparency and then embossed it with clear powder so the lines would show up better. I layered the jar on top of the pear using Fast Fuse.

I stamped the lid with Cherry Cobbler ink and used the Framelit that matched the stamp set to cut it out. I tied some linen thread around the lid in a knot. I attached the lid to the top of the jar using Fast Fuse.

I cut 6" of red ribbon and looped it through the hole.  I secured the loop with a mini glue dot.

The breakfast is coming up so I do not have any reactions to the bookmark yet.

Hope you have a great day!
