I’ll help you “hop along” from blog to blog where you’ll find great ideas for paper projects for babies and children from the Stampin’ Pretty Pals!

This time I thought I’d share a really cool, but quick and easy My Digital Studio (MDS) project that anyone can make for a kids project – maybe a scout craft, after school activity or even a fun little birthday party project. It’s a corner book mark!
Simply enough, you just have to place three square punch shapes (I sized them to 3 1/2″ square, then adjusted the angle to 45 degrees) in the configuration above. The outer two squares can be filled in with a DSP pattern, left blank, or you can add additional stamps to color in. Just remember that one of these outside pieces will overlap the other to make the page pocket. I put in a cute saying and left the stamp images uncolored so the kids can color them in on their own! Print out as many as you need on sheets of Whisper White cardstock.
Once the bookmark is colored, then cut it out, or have the kids cut it out using appropriate scissors, then fold and adhere the two flaps together to make the pocket. Can it get any easier?! Unfortunately, my sample didn’t print out quite as clean as I had hoped, but, you get the idea!

What a great idea!!
fantastic idea, Nicole!
hugs, m
What a great idea! That is so much better than the kids playing with my precious stamps & punches : )
You could even put out crayons or colored pencils instead of letting them use your SU markers…
Nicole, what a great idea. Great project to engage the kids too! Thank you for also a great job on th Blog Badge and Directional Buttons again … we appreciate you!
