This bookmark was inspired by the lovely bookmarks made by blogging friend Sharon!
I thought it was time to break away from card making !
Before I started my blog, I used to make lots of cards featuring teabag folding, a technique I love.
Now I try ways to incorporate teabag folding as a way of making embellishment, or using just one tile (in a bigger format) in an interesting way!
For my bookmark, I used a square of 15x15 cm. (teabag tiles usually measure between 3 and 5 cm)
This is a basic fold, which I decorated, and since it makes a "pocket" it is ideal to serve as a bookmark.
Here you will find the instructions for this fold!
I just added the eyelets, ribbon, pin, flourish, flower and button!
So easy and effective!
