bookmarks and friends

As I was going through pictures of my older projects I came across these bookmarks. I love them as much as the day I made them. I enjoy the mixing of papers, inking, ribbon, and using a big initial. Although, looking at them today, I found myself thinking about the two people I made them for. Our friendship was only in its infancy when I made them these, but they have become two of my closest friends. I admire so much about them. In looking back now I see how appropriate the quote was on them. It said, "Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born".
