My main love, aside from crafting, is reading. Since an early age I’ve pretty much always had my head stuck in a book. So of course, whenever I see a rubber stamp with a book-related theme, I’m thrilled.
No surprise then, that I fell in love with this adorable bookish little School Wormy from C.C. Designs.
Of course, I had to make a bookmark with him!
School Wormy has been coloured and airbrushed with Copic Markers, a list of which you will find at the end of this post. I also covered his glasses in Glossy Accents.
Papers are from the gorgeous and rather fun DCWV Green Stack, and I’ve covered the edges in Lime Ice Stickles which is quite yummy.

Love this. I too have always had my head stuck in a book as soon as I learnt to read. My perfect day when the weather is awful would be cardmaking and reading. This little image is soooo sweet. Marianne x
