Two Birthday Bookmarks

Hello and Happy Monday to you!

I hope your week is off to a wonderful start!  It is sure to be a busy one with Thanksgiving only four days away.  I can't wait to watch the Thankgiving Day Parade and enjoy the smell of all the delicious food cooking!  There is no denying that the hustle and bustle of the holiday season is upon us!  How exciting!!!

Today I am posting two bookmarks/tags.  My mom and mother in law share the same birthday so these will be attached to their gifts. My mom LOVES to read so she will be using hers as a bookmark.  I used the absolutely adorable set called Betsy Bluebell from Penny Black.  CUTE!!!!!
