Corner bookmark tutorial for Inky Impressions

Today is my inspiration post for Inky and I am showing you a tutorial for a corner bookmark.

Ok first off you start with a bazill paper. Mine is 5" x 5". You can however choose to make a smaller or larger one. Only thing that matters is that the sides are the same length all around

Make sure you find the center of three of the pages like I did here and you score them like I have done with a bone folder and ruler. Think thatis the easiest way. 

Next thing that I do is punch the bottom edge and cut out the DP that I want to use,like this:

Then I use vintage photo distress ink and distress the edges and add the DP to the bookmark and that makes it close.

Then I decorate the corner bookmark. I've used cowgirl Lili and you can find her here. I've coloured her with my promarkers and added some pearls and a charm from the Inky Impressions store.

Hope you liked my little tutorial. Have a lovely day.

I'll deliver for these challenges:

Tutorial - Mailbox

(after inspiration from Tine's mailbox found here)

Supplies needed:

1x 30x30cm sheet of cardstock/strong paper (maybe slightly larger)

1x 30x30cm sheet of double sided DP 

Ribbon to tie up the mailbox

Crop-a-dile

Border Punch

Strong Glue/Double Sided Tape

Optional: 2 sheets of 5x20 cm to decorate the sides, brads, lace, flowers etc.

Step 1:
Cut a piece of heavy cardstock with the measurements of 20x11 cm

Step 2:
Cut the mailbox floor that will go inside the mailbox: 20x11 cm 

and glue to the piece you've already cut out. 

Now score along both long sides at approximately 1.5cm and colour the edges.

Step3:
Attach double sided tapes on each side and cut a cardstock at 28x20 cm.

You can now choose to cut the dp that you want to use on the outside of the box. Same measurements as the cardstock.

Glue those 2 pieces together. Optional: you can colour the edges of the dp if you like.

Step 4& 5:
Now make the back and front of this box.
Make ready both the cardstock and the dp.

You can either choose to go easy and print ready measurements
found here and make it, or glue the sides of the cardstock on first and
draw around to get exact measurements. Remember you have to add
flips to the backside to attach to the inside of the mailbox.

Step 6
Glue the box together. For the backside take the long end first and attach the flips/tabs.

I've added the optional side decoration here.

Step 7
Make ready the handle to go outside. Use the precuts or draw your own and add dp's of preferance to the outside.

Attach to the mailbox either with a brad, for movement or glue it at the bottom tip and decorate!!

 

. I've had loads of fun making this mailbox it was quite easy to make to. Hope you'll try to make one at home;)
I'll add my recipe later on;)

'Stitchy Bear Stamps was created when a good friend of mine Sue from Beary Dust Stamps and I (Stitchy) were selling our products in the same store. One day we got an unexpected email saying that the store was shutting down and when we went to the store, poof it was gone...So, after the dust cleared and several emails later, Stitchy Bear Stamps was born. We gathered all the other creator's from the original store and away we went. It has been quite a learning experience but none the less we are growing everyday with new fabulous creators. I have always believed when God closes one door another Bigger and Better one opens ;)... Thank you all who have read our little story, I do hope you enjoyed ;) stitchy aka stitchy stamps."

Add the double sided tape to the front side at each end. One at the top of the last score and on the bottom side at the other score line at the very other end
