Project - Corner Bookmarks

Corner Bookmarks -

Have been making these to use up scraps and junk mail. Fun to make and useful ;-)

Cut the corners off a junk mail envelope...dimensions 2"x2" is good.

Leave 2 sides open to slide over corner of book page.

Then take scrap cardstock, cut and glue to both sides of envy corner to stiffen.

Next collage, draw, stamp, punch whatever you want to create art on them.

I used the gold edge from recycled Christmas cards, cut and scored to trim a couple.

These are really fun to make and use up those

teeny scraps that are always piling up.

Decided to use the "Zen" thing on one.
