A Craft and Chat replay for you today, perfect for the book worms! Or book dragons, those of us who hoard books! The For The Books stamp set is brilliant for cards and to personalise your books.
On the live we talked about books and whether its ever okay to turn down the corner to mark your page. Its not in my books that’s for sure! Anyone who borrows my books, gets a bookmark at the same time!
So to encourage you to use a bookmark, I showed how to make one with a simple origami fold.

The bookmarks are so easy to make, just don’t add anything too bulky or you will distort the pages of your book. Make sure to use a bone folder to reinforce the score lines and make the book mark sit flat.

I got the eyelashes sorted out, such a friendly monster! Of course everything looks better with googly eyes.

Here are all the Stampin’ Up! items I used in the video. Click on the pictures to go shopping in my online store.
I”ll be back on Friday with this weeks Craft and Chat replay. Hope you have a good week.
