Description:

This is a quick, easy, and fun swap!

You will send and receive 7 pretty bookmarks, perfect for all your summer reading.

~SPECIFICS~

  • -You’ll make 7 bookmarks for one partner, following this tutorial: How About Orange Fabric Bookmarks

  • -Use the prettiest fabric and ribbon you can find!

  • -Each bookmark should measure 2” x 6” (5 cm x 15 cm)

  • -Pack your envelopes into a pretty, durable envelope (make one yourself if you like!) and mail to your partner.

  • -Since bookmarks are lightweight, this is an international swap.

  • -Please look over your partner’s profile and select fabric/ribbon you think they’ll like.

  • -This only takes a scrap of fabric, so use your prettiest, nicest scraps!

~EDIT---BOOKMARK TIPS~

  • Make sure to put the glue on the cardstock, not the fabric.

  • Let the glue dry completely before cutting and punching holes.

  • 1/8" wide ribbon and rickrack works perfectly for this project.

  • If you have a bone folder (for card-making) it works great for flattening the fabric.

  • Cotton fabrics is best.

Must have a rating of 4.5 or higher. Newbies welcome -- Please have a filled-out profile and link to at least one other site you’re on (Etsy, Flickr, blog, etc.).

I’ll be checking profiles and ratings – please message me if you have any questions.

Thanks!
