PTI Swap Card/Corner Bookmark

I was almost stumped by this round of swapping, I so love to do things with each swap card that is new and creative. This round I came up with a corner bookmark, it is so easy for our DD little J to pull out my bookmarks it makes them almost useless to me this style took her a bit longer to figure out, LOL! And yes, I am a wishful thinking a tad by using PTI's Wishing you set I wish it were tulips covering the ground

My .cut files are distributed free of charge however, since I made this card for this round of PTI swapping to obtain this file I am requiring a few things first, please do the following... Become a follower of my blog, become a follower of Inspired Paper Crafters then come back to this post leave a comment with your contact email and I will send you the file.

Tutorial for Corner Bookmark Card

Cut all pieces using the Cricut .cut file I have created.
Score the tabs of the card front.
Tape the scored tabs on the card front.
Fold the tabs in and adhere the top triangle of the corner bookmark card front.
Place embellishment ribbon on the front layer piece and adhere to the corner bookmark card front.
Finish creating your corner bookmark card front.
Next create the pull out card portion.
Insert the pull out card into the corner bookmark.
Give as a little gifty card make sure you explain how to use the outer portion to the recipient.

I also thought this would be amazing as a Save the Date Corner bookmark card used as a Birthday hat. The inner portion would contain the save the date and the outer portion becomes a child's corner bookmark.
