Two little bookmarks



These are the bookmarks I made yesterday very simple to make.Take an 8 x 8 sheet of paper, fold in half and half again. Take 3 of the sides and fold them inwards to make this shape
Decorate the inside with other paper and decorate the front with whatever you choose, just be careful you dont glue the opening or you wont get it over the pages of your book







Morning All Happy Halloween. I havent decided what crafting Im going to do today. I really should do some die cutting . I also have a card to make for an order so I might have a think about that. Hope you all have a great day.

Bookmarks



These are the bookmarks I made yesterday.i made a short video of how to make these but unfortunately it doesnt upload videos on to the blog.i used 8 x 8 paper., fold in half  and half again .Take 3 of the sections and fold them inside to make the kind of envelope shape. If your paper is not double sided, you can insert another coordinating paper inside. Just glue and trim off the excess.I die cut some images from LOTV  and glued them to the front but only half way down so you still have the opening to go over your pages and I added some small rhinestones for decoration. These fit lovely over pages of books and would make lovely little gifts. Enjoy your day xx
