UKS Bookmark


So another challenge on UKS Cyber Crop was for bookmark and I thought I would make a card with a tag that can be used as a bookmark which is why there's a long bit of twine so it will hang over the book.
With the thought of my Gt nephew birthday I thought I would used this Adventure Guy from Mo Manning which I had coloured in to match the Doodlebug papers. I put the jigsaw paper down and everything else just got lost in it and since it was a boys card the brain immediately stopped working and I hadn't got a clue to embellish the card. Buttons and sentiment with a couple of corners were all I could manage.
The little strip is a tiny pocket for the tag/bookmark to sit in and making it easy for it to be taken off.
