Description:
If you are like me, you see a handmade bookmark as wonderful as an artist trading card. I collect them and am thrilled to get a handmade bookmark from near or far! For this swap you will send your partner ONE bookmark lovingly made by your hands! The theme will be SEPTEMBER, which, here in the Northern Hemisphere means back to school, fall fairs and the beginning of cooler days and nights. Think books, leaves, orange and brown colours, and children in school of course! this should be more than a piece of paper folded over ~ I'm sure if you are reading this you understand that and are getting your creative juices flowing! Think paper punches, layering, brads and quotes! (Use stickers sparingly please). make sure the bookmark has a hole punched at the top with a yarn or ribbon or twine to finish it off. Ratings: must have no recent unresolved 1's or 3's

Does the bookmark need to be paper craft or can they be made other ways?

By other ways what do you mean? I have had swappers make them from felt, wood and metal - that's certainly great!

I was thinking of crochet
