Colors of Spring Bookmark Box with Eileen Hull Dies

For the month of April, Eileen Hull's Inspiration Team's theme is the "Colors of Spring" and we've been busy creating all sorts of seasonal projects! I used her Skinny Mini Book Box Die to create a little gift box full of bookmarks for a friend of mine who is an avid reader. Of course my color scheme shouts "spring!"

the bookmarks fit neatly inside for storage!

I laminated the bookmarks to protect them…

My friend really liked her gift!

A tip for making it a box:


Here are all the parts I cut for the box. The cover parts can be used for journal covers or making a box. When using as a box, it is important to cut off a spine section. Otherwise there will be a big gap because the box sides are not as tall as the full spine width!

Making the bookmarks was fun. I used various paper and die cut scraps from my stash.
