Save The Date Bookmark

Of course a bride wants to make sure no one misses her big day. Before sending out your invitations, secure the date with friends and family by sending them this cheery save the date bookmark.

This little reminder will not only keep their place in the books theyre reading, but it will also help them keep their schedules clear. Provide all the information on where and when or just print up the date and a simple phrase or poem. Your loved ones will be thinking of you from one chapter to the next.

Here are the materials you will need to make two save-the-date bookmarks:

• one 4 1/2” X 6 1/4” (11.5 x 16 cm) card, yellow
• one 5” X 7” (12.5 x 18 cm) card, orange
• scissors
• craft glue
• single-hole punch
• 12” (30.5 cm) length of 1/2” (1.3 cm)-wide ribbon

STEP 1. Print your save-the-date information on the yellow card with a color printer. You can print two bookmarks on one card by formatting the
document into two columns and duplicating the information. Make sure the text is centered within both columns.

STEP 2. Cut both cards in half lengthwise.

STEP 3. Center one small card on top of one large card and glue together.
Allow the glue to dry.

STEP 4. Punch a hole 3/4” (2 cm) from the bottom of the bookmark.

STEP 5. Fold the ribbon ¡n half and feed both ends through the back of the hole.

STEP 6. Pull ends through the loop gently to secure the ribbon to the bookmark.
