Connie-Sweet Pea Paperclip Bookmarks

Today I have a sample of a very quick project for you!

Paper Clip Bookmarks

Supplies:
Nestabilities Classic Scalloped Large Circle dies
Nestabilities Standard Small Circle dies
Sweet Pea Stamps (Plate #14)
Copic marker BG01
Memento dye inkpad "Tuxedo Black"
White & aqua cardstock scraps
glue dots
oversize paper clip


Directions:


1)  Cut 2 each of circles

2)  Stamp saying on white circles, trace over words with Copic marker & affix over aqua scalloped circles


3)  Line up circle combos (one on each side of clip) and adhere to each other and clip with glue dots

4)  Slide your new bookmark over your book page to mark it!

*My sample shows both a finished bookmark and an untouched paper clip.  These are about 3.5" long and may be found at most office supply stores.
I cut the Sweet Pea saying stamp apart to make it more versatile.  You may see the original Sweet Pea stamp plate HERE.
