Lovely Vintage Rose Bookmarks Hand Crafted with Upcycled Materials

 
 
 
These lovely Inspirational Vintage Rose Bookmarks were fashioned from all Upcycled Materials.
 
 
First I cut cereal box cardboard to bookmark size.
 
Then I covered the printed side of cardboard with white paper and glued it in place.
 
After letting it dry I adhered an inspirational word cut from a magazine to the white paper and then allowed that to dry completely.
 
Next I covered both sides of cardboard with brown parchment-like brown paper that some shopping bags are made of and glued it in place so that writing shows through.
 
Lastly I created a paper rose from the same brown paper and made a leaf from green paper scraps, gluing them in place near the top of the bookmark
