It's Not Just a Card - It's a Bookmark

A few years ago, I saw a deal on 8mm magnets and thought I would just get them because I am sure I could find a use. 

Stampin' Up! Products

• Brilliant Blue, Old Olive and Whisper White cardstock
• Brilliant Blue cardstock strip measures 2 1/4" x 5 1/2"
• Jersey Shore Designer Series Paper
• Cardstock strip measures 2" x 5 1/2"
• Two Tag Bigz Die
1. Start with a 2 1/4" x 8 1/2" piece of cardstock
2. Score it at 4 1/4"
3. Place on die, just inside the straightedge of the tag
• Boho Blossom, Decorative Label, Scallop Circle and various sized circle punches
• Occasional Quotes and Punch Bunch stamp sets
• Brilliant Blue ink
• Old Olive and Only Orange Stampin' Write Markers
• Dimensionals
• Mini Glue dots
• Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue

Other Products

• Texture cardstock - similar to Only Orange by Stampin' Up!
• Card base measures 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
• Brad
• 8mm magnets

This isn't only a card, it is a bookmark too!

The magnets are very strong and only 8mm.  I take two magnets and leave them together.  I attach a glue dot to one magnet and place it on the inside of the bookmark.  I then attach a glue dot to the exposed magnet and close the bookmark.  Carefully open up the bookmark to expose magnets.  Apply Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue to a Scallop Circle punch outs and cover exposed magnets.  I would highly recommend using the liquid glue for this step of the project - your typical adhesive runner will not hold up.

Best Dad Ever - Joy Fold Card

Sometimes it takes me awhile to come up with a card.  Most times, I do end up wasting paper.  Even though this is frustrating, I find that the end result is worth the few pennies of cardstock.  This masculine card is a Joy Fold Card.  If you look at the picture you will see that there is a smaller card centered in the middle of the main card base.  I used a Hodgepodge Hardware to hold the smaller card closed.  The picture on the bottom shows the smaller card opened.

Stampin' Up! Products

• Sahara Sand card base
• Main card - 8 1/2" x 4 1/4" (scored at 5 1/2") 
• Smaller card - 3" x 8" (scored at 4")
• Layering Chocolate Chip cardstock
• Main card inside measures 5 1/4" x 4"
• Main card left side measures 2 3/4" x 4"
• Smaller card measures 3 3/4" x 2 3/4" (cut two)
• To the Nines Speciality Designer Series Paper
• Main card inside measures 5" x 3 3/4"
• Main card left side measures 2 1/2" x 3 3/4"
• Smaller card front layer measures 3 1/2" x 2 1/2"
• Always Artichoke, Chocolate Chip, Sage Shadow and Sahara Sand cardstock*
• Best Dad Ever and Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp sets
• Versamark ink
• Clear Embossing Powder
• Chocolate Chip ink
• Decorative Label and Word Window punches
• Dimensionals
• Hodgepodge hardware

*I stamped in Versamark using the tie stamp (from the Best Dave Ever stamp set) onto cardstock, applied clear embossing powder and used a heat gun to set the embossing powder.  I then hand cut the ties out and used Dimensionals to attach them to the front of the card.

This card is available for purchase from me for $5.00 plus $1.25 shipping through Paypal.  Currently the card has Happy Father's Day; however, I can change it to Happy Birthday or Thinking of You.  If you wish to purchase this card, please email me.
