Today is Angela’s last post with us as a Guest Designer.  We have been thrilled with her projects and it’s been a pleasure to have her!  And she’s leaving us in fine style today with the most darling project. Angela created a set of three bookmarks in sleeves.  Putting your bookmarks into sleeves turns them from a simple bookmark into a ready to present gift item.  These are GREAT projects to create at this time of year for those little gifts we all seem to need — friends, neighbors, teachers, stocking stuffers, etc.  And they are so FUN to make!  I did quite a few of these years ago and sure have the urge to make some again.  Take a look at Angela’s trio of bookmarks:

These are the bookmarks inside their sleeves — aren’t they sweet!

You can find the full post on Angela’s blog, and I think she’ll have some measurements for you.

All projects used Prima Delight Collection 6×6 paper pad, Seam Binding Ribbon, Kaisercraft Rhinestones.

The dies and stamps used will be linked under each individual photo.

You can see how the bookmark slips right into the sleeve.

JustRite Stamps:  Good Friends Labels Twenty-Nine (sentiment), Buntings and Banners (Friend)

Spellbinders Dies:  Labels Four (to form the beautifully shaped sleeve opening, Charmed, I’m Sure (Friend banner/tag)

So lovely and lacey!

Love how Angela took advantage of the pretty designs in the paper.

Again – so pretty.  LOVE all the soft colors in this paper collection.

JustRite Stamps:  Sunflower Vintage Labels Five (sentiment), Graceful Monogram (fleur de lis and swirls)

A FABULOUS collection of bookmark gifts. Thank you so much, Angela!!!!

And would you like to know a little secret that I wasn’t going to divulge, but I will? I sent Angela the scraps (yes, scraps) from my Scripture Table Favor project shown here, and she made these out of the scraps.  And there were a lot of scraps — I actually only sent her 1/2, and I have the other 1/2 here.  We could get just TONS of bookmarks out of the leftovers.  And it’s always such a good feeling to find a use for scraps!
