Description:

Create a bookmark using the title of one of your partner's favorite books, listed below. (or theme, if you prefer not to use words... in which case, the title should be written on the back somewhere) It can be the title of a novel, a short story, even a poem. Any piece of writing with a title. You can also check their profile if you need ideas on favorite colors, etc, but this doesn't have to be profile based. This can be drawn, collaged, painted... reallly anything you can come up with that is flat enough and book safe. Similar to an ATC, without any embellishments sticking up to damage pages. Put forth your best effort... but we all realize we are not Rembrandts here. ;) Mostly...Have Fun!!!

Please list in the comments section at least five books from which your partner will choose. (If you can think of a creative way to include more than one in the bookmark, feel free!! But you must use at least one.)

Decorate the outside of the envelope somehow, as well. Fancy mail that screams "I AM NOT A BILL!! I AM NOT JUNK MAIL! I AM FANTASTIC, FUN, ARTSY MAIL, AND YOU MUST GRIN WHEN YOU OPEN ME!" is always so much more fun than sedate three-piece-suit-mail that whispers, "Grab your checkbook and sit down, you are in for a long evening."
