Cricut Cardz Challenge #64

 

20110305_3 The challenge this week over at Cricut Cardz Challenge is to make a bookmark.  I didn’t have a lot of time but wanted to play along so here is what I came up with.

Unfortunately I didn’t write down all my sizes but I cut the tag for my book mark using Plantin Schoolbook and the tag found under the Italic option. I resized the tag on my Gypsy so it was 2 1/2” wide and 6” tall. I cut the tag twice once out of cream cardstock and then again out of the patterned paper as I wanted the bookmark sturdier than the pattern paper alone would have made it. The rest of the cuts are from Graphically Speaking and these are the ones I am not sure of the sizes, I believe about  1 1/2” to 2”. I inked all the edges with some Tea Dye distress ink. Attached everything to the bookmark and added some olive green ribbon at the top.
