A bookmark

Second post today! whoo hoo!! ☺ I made this bookmark for my daughter. I had this image from A Day for Daisies printed out for ages waiting to be colored.... love it, it´s simply gorgeous! and goes wonderful with the sentiment I placed on the back of the bookmark (from TlcCreations).
I colored the image with colored pencils, I wanted to use shades of purple only (to match the patterned paper I have it on my stash for ages too...), but I added a few touches of pink and glittered the flowers on the mother´s dress. As embellishments just added a few fabric flowers (gift from my sister Dani!) that I decorated with purple sequins and some glass seed beads. Very simple, but I love how it looks in real life!
On the back I layered the sentiment with a punched strip of the same patterned paper, and to make it less bulky I only added the flowers and sequins. Hope you like it as much as I do ☺
Thank you for looking!

I´m playing a the following challenges:
A day for daisies challenge #38: dress it up with gingham
Just some lines challenge: spring cleaning
All Sorts challenge #145: say it with flowers
Paper Sundaes challenge #111: Feminine flair
