Becky's Stampin' Studio: Peaceful Garden Corner Bookmark Card

So, I found this card idea on a reel as I was surfing on Facebook! And, then it was gone! This is an "Oldie But Goodie" that we haven't done in a while! The original one I saw, and shared, was made by Karen Titus from Stampin' on the Back Porch! This one uses the Peaceful Garden DSP and the lovely dove from the Peace on Earth Dies. Of course, I did my own thing to come up with my version. These are so fun to make, and practical/useful, too!!

Measurements:

Secret Sea (N): 1/4" sheet (base). scrap (dove)
Cloud Cover (N): 4 1/4" x 6 1/2" (mini card-for bookmark)
Peaceful Garden Glimmer Paper (N): 2 3/4" square (circle)
Basic White: 2 3/8" square (circle)
Peaceful Garden DSP (N): 4" x 5 1/4" (doves), 5" square, 3/4" x 3" (2nd pattern - for bookmark, front of card).

To Make This Card:

Bookmark

Take the 5" square of DSP (our 6x6 paper packs are perfect for this card!). Fold it in half, open it up, and then fold it in half, and open it up again.
Next, remove one 2 1/2" square. Throw this piece away.
Now, lay this piece flat on a table, and fold the opposing "square" to the center, leaving about 1/4" all the way around it. (Note: I didn't leave any border around mine, as I didn't particularly care for the back side of the DSP, but then it lines up in the Glitter Circle a little differently)
To finish, fold the 2 remaining "squares" under the diagonal fold. Add adhesive along one bottom fold and secure.
Before securing the diagonal piece, add a small piece of ribbon to aid in removing the "bookmark". Then adhere together.
Create an "accent" piece, and your "bookmark" is done!
For this one, I die cut a White circle from the Stylish Shapes. Select the size that best fits your "bookmark".
Then, I added a Secret Sea "half" dove with a glitter "olive branch".
Next, add the circle to the top half of your "bookmark".

Card

For the base, adhere the DSP piece. Set aside.
Then, for the mini card that the "bookmark" is attached to, fold the Cloud Cover piece in half.
Die cut a larger circle from the Secret Set Glimmer paper. Adhere to the upper right corner for the mini card. Check to see if the White circle on the book mark somewhat lines up! Then, press into place.
Add the DSP piece to the bottom of the mini card front, then stamp sentiment in Secret Sea ink.
Now, you can add the mini card to the card base.
Finish the outside with a few Hues of Blue Flowers.
