Halloween Monster Bookmarks
You’ll Need
White Cardstock Paper
Coloured Printer
Monster Bookmarks Printable
Scissors or paper cutter
[easyazon_link identifier=”B00007E7D2″ locale=”US” tag=”m0dd5d-20″ localize=”y”]Laminating sheets[/easyazon_link] (optional)
Hole Punch
Yarn
Instructions
Download the free Monster Bookmarks printable and print in colour onto white cardstock.
Using scissors or a handy paper cutter, trim around the edge of each one.
If you want to make the monster bookmarks super sturdy you can have them laminated or do it yourself at home with laminating sheets. You can even use clear shelving paper that you can sometimes find at the dollar store. If using either, just lie out a sheet sticky side up, place each bookmark onto the sticky paper, then lie another sheet over top, sticky side down this time to seal the bookmarks between the laminating sheets. Now cut around the edges again.
Using a hole punch, punch a hole at the top marker (white circle)
Tie some yarn through the hole.
You don’t have to laminate or attach the yarn if you don’t want to, they are really cute on their own, but if you want to dress them up a little it’s a great way to do it.

Teal Pumpkin Project
Have you heard of the Teal Pumpkin Project? It was launched in 2014 to support children with food allergies. Nobody wants a little one to miss out on the fun of trick-or-treating right? To take part, just put a teal pumpkin on your porch or a sign in your window letting families know you have non-food treats available. Have your monster bookmarks ready to hand out!
