Joy - My first acetate project!

Today's challenge over at 365Cards is to create a card that doubles as something else :) Oh boy, this is another toughie! They are piling us with toughies, each passing day, huh?

I've been wanting to make myself a bookmark. I love bookmarks growing up cos I love to read, a lot. Don't read as much these days as I wish I do, but this little bookmark will come in handy :)

I've adhered cardstock to the back as well so I could actually write a message and give it away as a card if I want to. But I think I will keep this one :) This is the first time I'm making a project using acetate as well. Am loving the effect! I'm sure I will be doing more projects with this soon!

Here's my card. Day 170's Double Duty :)


Thanks for looking! :)
