Whatever Wednesday - Page Corner Bookmark

Have you seen these little bookmarks that just slip over a page corner?  So darn cute.

After I made it, I decided to stamp "r-e-a-d" onto it as well.  I pulled out a cheap mini alphabet set that was not a Stampin' Up stamp set & now I am not very pleased with the quality of the stamps, so this bookmark looks like it'll be a keeper instead of a gift for a friend.  Lesson learned.  Stick with Stampin' Up!

Here's how you can make a page corner bookmark:

Begin with a piece of cs that is at least 4" square.  Actually, 5" square may even be better.

Score the cs in half in both directions.

Fold and crease on both score lines with a bone folder.

Cut away a quarter of the cs (an entire section).

Apply "sticky strip" adhesive onto onto one of the end squares, fold down the two "wings" & press together so it is flat.  A bone folder will help get a nice crease.


Decorate the bookmark with some stamping!
