This is going to be a quick post (I hope!) on a project I did a couple days ago for one of my mother's colleagues who was retiring. Since she was extremely fond of reading, I made her a set of 6.5" x 2" bookmarks. Most of the patterned paper I used was from My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline DOLLED UP collection and the Miss Caroline FIDDLESTICKS collection (Love the vintage look!).
Tip: An easy way to add deeper meaning to a project is to add quotes or sayings. On these bookmarks, I simply printed out these quotes from the web onto cardstock.
Supplies:
- Neenah SOLAR WHITE Cardstock
- My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline Dolled Up CUTE GARDEN Paper
- My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline Dolled Up PRINCESS LACE Paper
- My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline Fiddlesticks LUCKY TAPESTRY Paper
- Spellbinders Nestabilities STANDARD CIRCLE SMALL Dies
- Stampin Up! SMALL HEART Punch
- Martha Stewart EMBOSSED MONARCH BUTTERFLY Double Punch
- Hole punch
- We R Memory Keepers Sew Easy BROWN Bakers Twine
- We R Memory Keepers CORNER CHOMPER
Hope this gave you some ideas on how to make your own personalized bookmarks.
