End of May already and another challenge has started over on the Butterfly blog.
This is my card for your inspiration. I found lots of tutorials on adding a bookmark tag to a card but really liked the idea of a corner bookmark. There were a couple on You Tube which I adapted to make my own version. Mine is a stand up Tent fold design.
As you can see the bookmark slips off so makes an extra little gift for your card recipient to use in a reading book.
This is the inside of the bookmark fold and has space for greeting.
Tent fold then opens up for you to write your message.
Here is a close up of the book mark corner.

I have used all the elements from the Challenge wheel on my card. Even Buttons and Bows but you can just use one of them on your card.
Design paper is by Violet Studio 'Essentials Collection'. The sentiment is by Woodware ' Deco Sayings' and the Butterfly is from a stamp set by Inkylicious 'Fluter 2'. I have used faux buttons on my card which is a die cut by Joy Crafts. There is also a flower and a heart button in the set. I used my promarkers to colour the butterfly and bakers twine threaded through the button holes to make the tiny bows. Entering into the following challenges:

Looks like an interesting way of making a bookmark - a change for the usual tag style
Love so much all the hidden spaces and the bookmark corner, it's a rich card despite its simple folding. Thanks for the tutorial and the inspiration. Lovely sample, so sweet and delicate!

Hi Valery, what a pretty card and bookmark. I fabulous design and gorgeous colours too, Kate x
Beautiful bookmark card Mrs A, a great way of incorporating the bookmark. xx
What a clever idea. Love your card. Thanks for playing with us at Creative Knockouts.
What a lovely card! And it's so fun that the recipient then has a bookmark to use and think of you! Brilliant!
What a great card! The fun fold is one of my favorites and love the butterfly and sweet details. I had recently seen a tutorial for a corner bookmark card but I can't think of anyone who reads "paper" books to make it for! My daughter is the biggest reader I have ever known but reads everything electronically. I find that sad for some reason. Thank you for playing with Creative Creases Challenge, and I hope you can join us again soon.
