Bookmarks

If you are thinking about what to get for stocking stuffers for your loved ones, a bookmark can be a delight, especially for those who are avid readers. In my Simple Sunday video, I showed you three different types of bookmarks.  

*A simple marker with a color cardstock and designer series paper.     

*A fun corner bookmark.     

*A magnetic bookmark.

We will take a look at each of these in the same order as they are listed.

Simple Bookmark:

• 2-1/2" x 5-1/2" colored cardstock.  I used Midnight Navy and some foiled paper that I had leftover.  
• 2-1/4" x 5-1/4" Designer Series Paper.  I used the Snowflake Flurry Specialty Paper.
• 8" ribbon.  I used our denim ribbon and Pool Party.

Tools to use:

• Paper Punch 
• Paper Snips
• Stampin' Seal

Corner Bookmark:

These are monochromatic (different shades of the same color) 

I used Gorgeous Grape and Highland Heather for one bookmark, and Bermuda Bay and Coastal Cabana for the other.

Using the Heart Punch Pack, I punched (2) Two scalloped hearts in the darker shade of cardstock, and (1) one plain heart in the lighter shade of cardstock. I glued one-half of the scalloped hearts together, using the Liquid Multi-Purpose Glue.  I stamped an image with the lighter shade of ink, on top of the light-colored heart.  Then on top of that image, I stamped my sentiment in the darker shade of ink.  After I finished stamping, I adhered the light-colored heart to the top of the scalloped ones.  

Tools to use:

• Gorgeous Grape Cardstock
• Highland Heather Cardstock
• Gorgeous Grape Stamp Pad
• Highland Heather Stamp Pad
• Bermuda Bay Cardstock
• Bermuda Bay Stamp Pad
• Coastal Cabana Cardstock
• Coastal Cabana Stamp Pad
• Happiness Abounds Stamp Set
• Beautiful Plants Stamp Set
• The Heart Pack Punch
• Liquid Multi-Purpose Glue

Magnetic Bookmark:

1" x 5-1/2" Strip of Cardstock

The smallest Circle of the Layering Circle Dies in Basic White

With this bookmark, I punched the ends of the strip of cardstock with the Lovely Label Punch.  I also embossed this strip to give it some character.  I then added small strips of magnetic sheets to the ends of the bookmark.  The embossing is not necessary.  I found that the embossing made the strip "weak." Because of this the second bookmark I made I added a strip of 3/4" x 4-1/2" strip of basic white to the inside of the bookmark to give it more stability.  That worked great!  However, I encountered another challenge.  I only had Magnetic Sheets.  Cutting up some strips to put inside the first bookmark closed perfectly when placed over a book page.  The sturdier bookmark was too sturdy for those magnetic strips.  Should you choose to do a sturdier bookmark, I suggest a stronger magnet you can get from your local craft store.

I stamped my image on the white circle, added some embellishments, and added that to the top of the bookmark with a Stampin' Dimensional. 

Tools Needed:

• Cardstock of your choice.  I used Garden Green and Real Red and Basic White
• Christmas Banners Stamp Set
• Festive Pearls
• Magnets
