This week's challenge at Fantabulous Cricut was all about books. I decided to play along and made a corner bookmark. I have admired these from afar on many blogs but never made my own. It was super easy and I think I will certainly be making more. I just googled "corner bookmark" and found lots of tutorials and directions.
The patterned paper is by The Paper Studio. I cut the base in white and then added a black mat for the patterned paper.
I cut a 1" strip of yellow and punched with a Martha Stewart border punch, then added a strip of ribbon.
The bee comes from Just Because Cards. I added stitching with a black gen pen so the wings wouldn't look so plain.
I really enjoyed making this. I am thinking I need all kinds of creatures on bookmarks. Butterflies...ladybugs...owls...birdies.... I'm sure you'll be seeing more of these from me! Thanks for stopping by today!
Blessings,
Cheryl
