After you've settled on the perfect size for your bookmark, take your time and cut your paper meticulously, making sure to trim any uneven edges or crooked angles. This step is essential in ensuring that your bookmark looks neat, tidy, and proportional, all while enhancing its visual appeal.
But wait, there's more! If you want to take your bookmark game to the next level, don't forget to reinforce its structure by sticking the material paper onto a durable thick paper card. This tip helps prevent your bookmark from bending easily, but it will also add an extra layer of sturdiness and longevity to your creation. Remember, the goal is to create something not only visually stunning but also practical and long-lasting.

 Creating a unique look for your bookmark can be as simple as making some modifications to the corners or adding decorative details. Rounded edges are a great option if you're looking for a modern, clean design.

And if you want to take it one step further, try punching a hole into it to add decorative details by punching holes into your bookmark. This allows you the ingenuity to incorporate different design elements such as ribbons and tassels to catch people’s eye.

Unleashing your creativity is all about adding personal touches that make your bookmark truly one-of-a-kind. Once you've got the basics down, it's time to have some fun experimenting with different materials and design elements. If you're working with ribbons, consider using a mix of colors and patterns to create an attractive effect.
In addition to ribbons, lace is another great choice for adding a delicate and downy feel to your bookmark. You can easily create a variety of lace patterns by cutting out different shapes from lace fabric and attaching them to the edges of your paper. This creates an elegant, lacy border around your bookmark.

    Hi. I want to buy all this but I really want to buy that book marker that has the butterfly at the top that sticks out on top of the book. You show it on your video but I don’t see it any where to buy. What package is that book marker you can paint with the butterfly that sticks up through the pages. I love it and want to buy the package that has that particular book marker
