Packing Tape Bookmarks


Here's a super easy and fun project. Bookmarks that are "laminated" with packing tape so that they lasts forever! Perfect little gift to sneak into a card as well! Happy crafting! xo

Materials
 ✉ Colored cardstock
 ✉ Collage images & Scraps of patterned paper
 ✉ Glue
 ✉ Scissors
 ✉ Packing tape



I even printed one of my favorite quotes onto colorful cardstock and made a collage
 around it! Make sure to cut the bookmark no wider than the packing tape... 4.5cm
Punch a hole at the top and add some ribbons or yarn!
