Introduction
Let your imagination soar every time you open a book with this enchanting handmade bookmark. Featuring Christine’s original bird illustrations and the uplifting message “Books give us wings to fly”, this piece is more than just a page holder—it’s a gentle reminder of the joy and freedom that reading brings.
Handmade Process
Each bookmark is lovingly crafted by hand in Christine’s studio. The birds are drawn by the artist herself, with care and character in every feathered friend. The illustration is digitally printed on premium cardstock, manually aligned and printed on both sides for a polished finish. After printing, each bookmark is hand-laminated for durability and carefully trimmed by hand, ensuring a clean, professional edge and a personal touch in every piece.
Materials
Made from high-quality, acid-free cardstock and protected with a crystal-clear laminate, this bookmark is built to last through countless page turns. The inks used for printing are vibrant, fade-resistant, and eco-conscious. Every element is selected for both beauty and sustainability, making it a joy to use—and kind to the planet.
Size
This bookmark measures approximately 2 inches wide by 6 inches tall. Due to its handmade nature, very slight variations in trimming may occur, adding to its handcrafted charm. It’s thin enough to slip easily between the pages, yet sturdy enough to keep its shape over time.
Colours
Set against a serene blue background, the birds—each sketched with delicate lines and joyful detail—stand out in soft, natural tones. The blue evokes the sky, complementing the theme of flight and freedom. The phrase “Books give us wings to fly” is printed in an elegant, readable font, making this bookmark as inspirational as it is functional.
