Hello card stock fans!!! Lisa Lahiff here today and I have a fun little tutorial showing how I made these cute and simple magnetic bookmarks. I don’t know about you, but I LOVE bookmarks, and plus I’m always needing one, and my son is the same way. So I thought with the start of school happening across the country now would be a perfect time to create some of my own bookmarks.
1. I started with a panel of Esse card stock in white… I love this card stock for several reasons: it has a nice texture to it, the 100 lb weight is great for using various mediums, and you can color on it with Copic Markers! I used gullets in red and yellow on the front of my panel and went over it with a wet baby wipe to blend the colors in.
2. Next I stamped my images and colored them in with Copic Markers.
3. I used a small pair of scissors to trim each of my images out.
4. I then die cut 2 tags out of my panel to act as the front and back of the bookmarks.
5. I layered the two tags together, added a hole to the top, tied in the twine, and stamped a few images on the background.
6. I added magnetic strips on each of the tags on their insides. These magnetic strips already had adhesive on the back of them, so it made it easy for this project.
7. I then glued my images onto the front tag. And that’s it! Your bookmark is ready, enjoy!
Thanks so much for stopping by and feel free to share what you are making with some of the card stock available in the CutCardstock.com store on our social media!
Today I have a little something special to share with you. I made this cute “So Grateful” card using a Brown Bag Kraft A6 folded invitation and some punched butterflies. It was simple to print the sentiment on and then embellish exactly how I wanted it to be…. I gathered my supplies: Then, I printed…
Here’s a quick way to make beautiful cards that actually looked more complicated than they are to make. Using the wreath builder set from Gina K Designs helps you breeze through creating them. But using the right paper sets the stage to make them even more beautiful. I love the look of the Royal Sundance…
Giving Thanks TogetherThanksgiving may just be one of my favorite holidays. It’s a time to be around people you love, eat until you are silly, and take a moment to be thankful for all the blessings that we have. It’s a wonderful pause in the midst of what most of us would call a busy…
I’m not a big holiday person, and since we typically don’t spend it at our house, I don’t do a lot of decorating. But since this is the first Christmas in our new house, I am excited to add some holiday-themed items around our new space. I came across a post with these paper gingerbread…
