How I made them

Just a quick blog to show how I made the bookmarks, this is not my idea but shows I how made them. The size of card is 10cm by 5cm and you simply bring the two corners across to the middle.

I stick one side to the shape I want to use.
I then cut out approx 7cm square and cut diagonally across the middle to make two triangles, I only need one because I then do the same with a 6.5cm square to make layers in the pic. I then stick on the the bookmark triangle.
Decorate how you like, its brilliant for using scraps.
