I decided to make a custom color your own bookmark for my sons Valentines this year. While cutting the bookmark I realized that the scrap hearts could also be utilized for other projects such as earrings and pins! Within 10-15 minutes I had 3 completed projects!
I designed the bookmark in creative space using the available rectangle and heart shapes and added the text. The Text was all scored which allows the children to color the bookmark however they wish, and the hearts and rectangles were cut.
Once the bookmark was scored and cut I attached a ribbon at the top just for added decoration.
I took the "scrap" hearts and decided to create 2 more projects with them!
The larger hearts were put back in the M1 to engrave quotes on them for Pins.
The smaller hearts were painted with a paint pen to make earrings.
Once the Pins and Earrings were painted I then used Gorilla Glue to attach the posts and pin backs. I let them dry for at least 24 hours to make sure they're secure.
