Thrifty Craft - Thrifty Gift to Include in a Birthday Card

I often send birthday cards to family and friends on their special day.  I really wanted to include a little something special in my friends card this year but I didn't want to spend a lot of money.  I finally decided to make her a bookmark.  I had all the items needed to make this bookmark = NO money spent. 



Items Needed:

Cardstock - Solid Colors and Patterened
Buttons
Ribbon
Glue
Scissors
White Writing Pen
Decorative Punch

So, what do you think?  Do you think she will like it?

I love this! I was going to make it for my niece who I need to send a card to soon, but then I realized she's not yet literate :p I'll keep it on file for next year!

Femmefrugality,

Thanks! I plan on making more and sending them out throughout the year to friends and family. I am sure your niece will love it when you do send it to her.
