What you need:

• One page from comic book
• One ruler
• One pen or pencil
• One pair of scissors
• One piece of cardstock paper or file folder
• One bottle of craft glue
• One roll of packing tape
• One single hole punch
• Embroidery floss, yarn or thin cord

What to do:

• Using a ruler and a pen or pencil, draw two 2″ x 6″ boxes on a comic book page. Cut them out.
• Trace one of the pieces of paper on the cardstock paper and cut the 2″ x 6″ cardstock box. (We recycled an old file folder!)
• Glue one of the cut comic book pieces of paper onto each side of cardstock.
• If you did not place the paper on the cardstock exactly, trim the edges so the cardstock is not visible.
• Apply clear packing tape to front and back of bookmark.
• Trim excess tape.
• Punch a hole in the middle of the bookmark next to the top edge.
• Cut two pieces of cord that are each twice as long as the height of the bookmark.
• Thread both cords through the hole together and tie a knot along the edge of the bookmark, leaving the remaining cord extending from the bookmark.
