3D Paper Trimmer July Blog Hop Vacation

Welcome to the 3D Paper Trimmer July Blog Hop and this month our theme is Vacation. Here in the U.S. it is Summer time and the perfect time to go on vacation. You will be visiting with talented Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world as they share their ideas and projects to help inspire you.

When I think of vacation time, I think of the ocean and the chance to relax and read a good book. So today I thought I would share this cute Corner Bookmark that I created using the Sailing Home stamp set and coordinating Smooth Sailing Dies. I was inspired by the fellow Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, Debbie Henderson, from her You Tube video here and she gives wonderful instructions to create this fun bookmark. I love how it slides onto the corner of the page to help you keep your place when reading your favorite book.

This fun bookmark is easy to assemble with Debbie's wonderful video here. The trickiest part is the scoring and cutting of the diagonal measurements, which you can do with the Paper Trimmer. I had so much fun decorating using the stamp images from the Sailing Home stamp set and creating the die cuts with the Smooth Sailing Dies. The Copper Foil and Copper embossing powder help step up the design without the need for ribbon or embellishments that might fall off or damage the book.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. I hope that my bookmark inspires you to create your own vacation themed projects with the amazing products in the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog.
