Vintage Bookmarks

Make some bookmarks with some things around the house

A couple of bookmarks I made using some Tim Holtz stamps and the Distress Inks. The base of the bookmarks are made out of plain manilla envelopes, as I can't see paying $4 for 15 precut cardtags. $3.27 at Walmart for 50 full size envelopes. Score! The stamps used on the right one (not the words one) I made myself out of craft foam. For the circle background on the left one I inked some bubblewrap lightly and tamped it down. Then I added some ephemera I had laying around :D If you wanted to make your own stamps out of the foam, it's going to take longer. But this is just the basics to get you started
