Foam Bookmark

This is another simple to do craft. A bookmark made of foam.
You'll need some craft foam, key ring and a paper clip. You'll also need some cookie cutters for shapes.
Cut the foam to the shapes you desire.
Glue them together. Use a needle to poke a tiny hole for the key ring.
Insert the key ring and the paper clip and your foam bookmark is ready!

Father's Day Card

Father's Day is around the corner. I've made this card for my Darling, for being the #1 Dad to my precious Ethan. I'll make another for my Dad too, for being the #1 Grandpa to Ethan and the #1 Dad to ME!
I use blue craft foam.
Fold both ends so that they meet in the middle.
Push down the top corner to make the 'collar'. Glue it down.
Draw some lines and cut a line through the pocket to insert a note.
I printed Darling's name and a note to slip into the pocket. Peek-a-boo at what's inside.
Peek again...
Tah-dah! My precious Darlings!

Ribbon bookmark

This is too simple to do. All you need is a ribbon, foam and googly eyes. Cut out the foam to any shapes desired and add the googly eyes to make it more interesting. Paste the foam on both sides of the ribbon and on both ends too. Alternatively, you may used nice buttons instead of foams.

LadyBug Tea Light Holder

I was clearing my drawer when I saw many Chinese New Year greeting cards. Then it hit me, why not turn them into something beautiful, something useful...
Don't throw away your greeting cards. It is getting rare these days as many people opt to send virtual greetings instead...
Cut out a strip to wrap the tea light and a circle for the bug.
Cut out the head and some legs from black craft foam.
I flip through old magazines to find pages with black printout and cut out small circles for the dot on the bug's body. I also cut out my old place mat for the base of my bug.
Glue them all together and I got this beautiful tea light holder, from recyclable items! Simple!
