Homeroom Bookmark Kit with Brutus Monroe

 


Hello everyone!  Today's project with Brutus Monroe is a bit different - I made a
bookmark kit!  So easy to do!!!!

Brutus Monroe Products used:


I started my project by cutting panel to stamp the locker image on.  These 
measure 2" x 6".  I stamped the locker image on each panel with Raven
Detail Ink.

Next, with a craft knife, I cut along the inner edges of the lockers leaving the left uncut so it could be folded open.  These were very easy to cut.


Next I took a half sheet of white card stock and stamped out my images with Raven Detail Ink.


I admit, I did fussy cut these out.  It only took about 15 min as these images are very easy to cut.  Next, with my envelope maker, I made a small 2 1/2" x 3 1/3" envelope to contain all the little images.  All of the images have pieces of Double Sided Tissue Tape on the backside.


I backed each of the locker panels with another piece of white card stock.  This gives a surface for sticking the images inside and also gives more stability to the bookmark.  I punched a 3/16" hole in the top of each one and also included bakers twine in the kit.
And lastly, I wrote a little poem (please feel free to copy) to be included in the kit so it could be given as a gift.  I printed it out onto notebook paper.


With a nice box of pens/markers/colored pencils, this is complete to give as a gift.  An adorable bigger envelope could be decorated with stamped & colored images for an adorable presentation!


I hope you enjoyed today's project!  This was so different for me to create but I love how
it turned out!  I did have a creative mentor for this project - my 11 year old granddaughter!
She loves this kit!
