Magnetic Bookmarks and Planner Page Markers

Hiya, Over of the Silhouette UK Blog today I've shared a tutorial for some cute retro bookmarks using the Silhouette Printable Magnetic Paper. These use a Print & Cut design called the 57 T Bird Car Print and Cut Set (#12253) by Samantha Walker.

The post includes details on how to adapt the design to print onto the magnetic sheets with an inkjet printer, and how to use a Silhouette Cameo to cutout and score the bookmarks too. Pop over to the Silhouette UK Blog to find out more.

Here are some other projects I have made using these printable magnetic sheets.

Cut and decorate your own Leatherette Bookmarks

Hiya, today I have a new post over on the Silhouette UK Blog on using Silhouette Leatherette Sheets. Yes, the leatherette sheets can be cut very successfully on any of the Silhouette machines (not the Mint, of course).

Not only does the post contain a tutorial on cutting the leatherette it includes how to cut and decorate bookmark AND a  free cutting file for the bookmark.  You can only download the file from the Silhouette Blog, so you'll need to pop over there if you want (or go ahead as design your own).

I decorated the bookmarks with heat transfer vinyl (HTV) using the beautiful Many Flowers Border file by Nic Squirrell (#177994).

I think they turned out nicely and look very professional.  Do you prefer the smooth or flocked finish?

Oh ... and bonus points if you can tell me the title of the book in the photos!
