Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Hi everyone! Since My mum is a huge fan of Douglas Adams' lovely books, I would like to make her a special bookmark.
I would love to have it say "DON"T PANIC" followed by the thumbs up sign.
I think these pictures may be good to use:
DON"T PANIC: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_LaLd9i_lnOY/T ... +panic.jpg
Thumb: http://darkalchemisthaku.deviantart.com ... o-26980928
I would like it to be bookmark size appropriate on 16 count, and if possible, very limited amount of colours. Just red for the letters and blue for the thumbs up would be perfect. I'd backstitch the yellow lines around the letters I think.

I would be very grateful for any help I work on a Mac and still do not have the hang of making my own patterns. A pdf and picture preview are much appreciated

Love it!! What a great idea!!

I'm not sure what standard bookmark size is (my bookmarks are all pieces of paper ripped off the nearest piece of junk mail... ) - but this one came out to about 1" x 7.5" on 16 count Aida.

Thank you for responding so quickly! I think the size might be a bit of though... My bookmark here is a little under 2" by 5" I guess. Is there any way you can make the letters a bit smaller and the thumb a bit bigger?

Ooooooo...... I actually like the look of this one much better
