DIY: page corner bookmarks
>> domingo, 25 de março de 2012
On a piece of plain scrap paper, draw a square. Use your ruler so its sides are perfectly straight. Don’t make it too big – mine measured 2.5 inches x 2.5 inches, though you could go larger than that. Draw second square exactly the same size on the right side of the first square (so they share a side) and a third square exactly the same size on the top of the first square. You should end up with 3 squares that compose an L shape.
Using your ruler, draw a diagonal line across the uppermost square, from its top right corner to its bottom left corner. Scribble out the upper left half (now a triangle) of the square, as you won’t be using that part.
Next, draw a diagonal line across the bottom right square, from its top right corner to its bottom left corner. Scribble out the lower right half (now a triangle) of this square.
Cut out all parts of the entire shape that have not been scribbled out. This should be a square with two triangles attached to it, one on the top and one on the right. This is your template.
Trace your template onto your pretty piece of cardstock (or onto the plain piece of cardstock that you intend to decorate), and cut the shape out.
Using your ruler and the tip of your mechanical pencil with no lead showing, score a line (make an indent) along the edges of the square that connect to the two triangles.
[optional] Cut a square of pretty paper slightly smaller than the one you used for your template and glue it onto the square portion of your shape. I generally do this if the paper I’m using is quite plain.
Fold one triangle inwards, so it covers the upper half of the square.
Apply glue to the underside (the side still facing up) of the second triangle, and fold it over onto the first triangle.
[optional] If you’ve used plain cardstock and want to glue fancy paper on top of it, cut out a triangle of the fancy paper that’s slightly smaller than the folded-over triangles of the bookmark. Glue the smaller triangle on top of the larger, folded-over ones.
Add any decorations or illustrations you wish. Use by slipping over the corner of the page you wish to mark, like a pocket.

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo
>> quarta-feira, 25 de janeiro de 2012
I went to the movies last friday and I saw the new enigmatic film "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo". It's a very good movie but also shocking. In some scenes I put the bag of popcorn in front of my face because I couldn't see what was happening. But, I liked so much the movie that I've been surfing on the net looking for the dates where the other two films will be released. The next one of the Millennium trilogy is "The Girl Who Played With Fire" and it will be released in the end of 2012 or in the beginning of 2013. The last one "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest" is expected to be in the theaters in 2015. So I'll probably read the books first because I really want to know more about the principal character - Lisbeth Salander. Rooney Mara is such an amazing actress!
Did you see the film? What do you think about it? Did you like it?
Ohh lalala Daisy!

And here it is, my new perfume. My winter perfume finished before the winter, something that never happened before so I decided to try a new essence. Daisy by Marc Jacobs is a perfume that suits me. And the bottle is so lovely! I love the fragrance and I recommend!
Have you ever tried it? Did you like it?
