I got this lovely letter and book mark from Elizabeth Loupas. Both are too nice to keep to myself so wanted to share with all of my readers. Here are the letter and the bookmark.
Dear Jo,
Enclosed please find bookmark # 25 of 36, of the signed and
numbered, limited edition Flower Reader pressed-flower bookmarks, I’m so pleased to be able to send it to
you!
The Flowers used in the bookmark are, from the top:
Wild Rose
Daisy
Verbena
Coral Bells
Marigold
Rose Bud
Cornflower
Buttercup
…with ivy leaves scattered throughout
The meaning of the flowers are:
Wild Rose: bracing and bittersweet.
Daisy:
divination, answers to questions.
Verbena; the holy herb, protect from evil.
Cora bells: rising to the challenge.
Marigold:
comfort for the heart and spirit.
Rose Bud: blossoming passion, not necessarily romantic.
Cornflower: enduring love.
Buttercup: love of riches and rich food.
Ivy: good
fortune and constancy, promises kept.
I hope you enjoy The Flower Reader, and may you bookmark
many many wonderful books!
Best regards, Elizabeth Loupas
Hi Jo,
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful bookmark, not something that I would want to use for fear of it getting damaged.
I have often thought about collecting bookmarks, as there are some fantastic ones around and they don't take up too much space.
I think I may be outvoted on the idea by hubbie though, as he has to endure the hundreds of books we have around the place and bookmarks to go with them might just be a step too far!!
Thanks for sharing,
Yvonne
