Rainbow Clouds Bookmark


Yes, you've guessed it, I have another bookmark for you! lol

I went a bit crazy last weekend and couldn't stop making them :)

This one is so fun and perfect for all the rainbow themes that are so popular and relevant at the moment.

This one kind of just evolved as I was making it, I didn't have the whole design in my mind when I started it so just went with the flow.



On a piece of thin cardstock I added some adhesive and then cut and adhered strips of cardstock in rainbow order, before die cutting with the faux stitched tag die.  I also then die cut a piece of white cardstock and adhered this back to back to create a better finish on the reverse.  I wanted to add a cloud to the top, to appear from both the upper and reverse views but the cloud dies I had weren't symmetrical, so when adhered together they didn't line up.  That's where the foam came in.  I found that when die cutting foam it didn't matter which side of the die cut was uppermost, unlike the finish you get with die cut cardstock.  So I sandwiched the top of the bookmark between the two larger clouds and adhered these in place.  To finish, I adhered another single smaller cloud, adding a slim piece of double sided foam tape to secure the overhanging part.  I think this could look cute poking out of the top of a book!


Materials used:
  • Cardstock: Papermania - Textured Cardstock
  • Dies: MFT Die-namics - Tall Tag Duo, Cloud Trio; Clearly Besotted - Cloudy Days Die Collection
  • Fun Foam

Still a couple more to share, will post those very soon.
