Bookmark Card
Do you ever need a card with a bookmark?  Maybe you're giving a bookstore gift card, or you're in a book club or know someone who just loves to read?!?
 
This is a great project for you!  The coolest part is that the bookmark is part of the card and then detachable for your recipient!  How awesome is that?!?
