I’m very excited for the new 2020 Spring Catalog to debut on January 3rd! Last month I was enjoying creating with some of these new products and discovered how the “cute as a bug” sentiment in the new Little Ladybug stamp set worked so well with the worm shape you can get from the Snowman Builder Punch. I took these supplies and designed a few cards and bookworm bookmarks.
Then on Wednesday during my Online Paper Crafting Class on Facebook, I shared how to make one of the cards and the adorable bookmark and holder. I uploaded the recorded version of my Facebook Live video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). And then I was able to share it here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), scroll through the close-up photos, check out the products list below the photos, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for the cards and bookmarks that I demonstrated.

I made the simpler version (shown on the right below) a few weeks ago. That little guy has the Googly Eyes.
Here are a few photos I took when I made that simpler version.
I ended up cutting a couple inches off the top and adding that to the bottom for the pocket.
I’m sad the Googly Eyes are retiring, but the version with the Pearls worked pretty well. 🙂

Thank you very much Maryann! Merry Christmas to you and yours too!
I love the book worm, very cute! It reminded me of the glow worm (stuffed animal) my son had when he was a baby…..I was also thinking you could use the heart as the wings of a butterfly or as a dragonfly if you cut the heart in half very cute…..
thank you
Thanks Pat! Yes!! Great idea. A couple others suggested wings too. I LOVE it!
(I giggled at the glow worm stuffed animal comment. I didn’t have one, but I remember them.)
What a fun idea, wonder if the hospitalized kids in the Shriner’s Hospital for Children would like them as tray favors
Thanks Ginni! How sweet of you. I’m sure they would.
