Lion Bookmark




This was originally printed on UK Days Out. It's a cheap craft idea, and the method can be adapted to make lots of fun designs, such as a scary monster or barking dog.

You will need:

Card
Scissors
Ruler
Pens, pencils or paint

Cut out a rectangle of card measuring 4.5cm by 18cm.

Measure 7cm from the top of the bookmark and draw a line. Then draw another line 1.5cm beneath that (8.5cm from the top of the card).

Fold along the lines so that the bookmark forms a 'Z' shape.
