I've made quite a few of these little bookmarks lately as they are so quick and easy. This one uses the beautiful
Tonic Studios Butterfly border punch and my
Honeysuckle digi image from
A Passion for Stamps.
 |
1. Cut a square with sides measuring 8.5cm , marking the centre of 3 sides. Fold the top corners into the centre .
Punch the bottom with the border punch. |
 |
| 2. Cut a triangle to fit the back of the bookmark . |
 |
| 3. Attach to cover the join. |
 |
| 4. Draw around the front part of the bookmark and cut out a piece of card to cover . Emboss this and attach to the front. |
 |
5. Print and colour digi image, cut out and attach to the embossing.
It's been pouring here for days now and the garden is soaking but here are a few photos I took in a dry spell on Monday. I just love the texture on all the different leaves.. |
See you soon !

ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea Ruth, might need to make a few of these for the girls.
ReplyDeleteWeather's the same here, I've almost given up any hope of a proper Summer this year. I kept saying it was saving the sunshine for Wimbledon and the Olympics, but looking at the long range forecast not so sure.
