Book Marks - Punch Craft

Hi Friends. 

It is hot and sultry. No rains. So it is like summer again. 

There was a time, when Punch Craft was much in fashion. So I used to buy what all punches I could get my hands on. At that time, online craft shops were not there. So I used to rely on local craft shops. We have very few here and only very few used to sell the punches or other craft materials.

Any way here is one Book Mark I made using Punches. 





These are the Punches I used



Materials Used:

  • White Card stock pieces 2
  • Yellow Card Stock piece
  • Red Card Stock piece
  • Punches
  • Corner Rounder
  • Flat backed pearls in two sizes
  • Red and Yellow matching satin ribbons
  • Red and Gold Ghungroo 2 each
  • Single hole puncher
  • Glue

Book Marks-Simple and Easy

Here is one more book mark which is simple and easy to make. This is how I made it.

  • I took an orange coloured textured hand made paper strip which I had it in my scrap paper stash.
  • folded it into half , punched the flowers on one side.
  • punched a hole in the strips, both front and back ones
  • added a dark pink coloured hand made paper in between the folds and glued the folds .
  • added the flat bottomed pearls
  • made a braid from the wool, strung through the punched hole and knotted each end.
That's all. My book mark was ready.



 This is the front side of the book mark

This is the back side.


Materials Used:


  • Textured hand made paper Orange coloured
  • Hand made paper dark pink coloured

Book Marks-Simple and easy

Hi Friends!

Hope you are all doing well. It has been a long time since I posted. nothing new in that these days, isn't it? Well I am recovering slowly but steadily. Still can't sit for long periods and can't type much.

But today, I took some time out for myself to post this. Its cloudy but hot and also sultry.

Anyways. here is a simple book mark very easy to make. I made it long back. I had some hand made paper scrap with me. So I decided to use it to make some book marks. One of them was this. 

  • I took a long strip of light green coloured hand made paper and folded into half. 
  • Punched holes with a puncher on both the layers.
  • Stuck those two layers together



  • Then I glued some puffy stickers on the folded book mark.



Then I added a coloured string after wards. Sorry I don't have the final picture as I gave it away to one of my little friends.


Materials used:

  • Light green coloured hand made paper strip
  • Puffy stickers
  • Glue
  • Single hole puncher
  • Coloured string

Will be posting more. so watch out.
