Hi! I’m Susie from Handy with Scissors. I love using recycled materials for art making and am on a mission to get people to ‘Give junk a chance!”

This project uses recycled cardboard and old artworks, which are two of my favourite art making materials.  These bookmarks are simple to make would make a lovely gift for friends and family.

Easy Heart Bookmark Designs – WHAT YOU NEED

  • Some recycled cardboard (not too thick)
  • An old artwork
  • Stick glue
  • Hot glue (PVA would also work)
  • Some ribbon

Easy Heart Bookmarks – HOW TO MAKE

recycle heart bookmarks designs

  1. Draw three heart shapes on some cardboard, each one smaller than the last.
  2. Cut them out.
  3. Trace the heart shapes against your artworks and then cut them out.
  4. Stick the shapes you have cut from the artworks onto the corresponding cardboard heart.
  5. Cut a length of ribbon about 30cm long. Stick this to the back of the middle sized heart. I used hot glue but you could try PVA or sticky tape.
  6. Stick the heart ribbon side down on top the largest heart.
  7. Finish by sticking down the smallest heart on top.
