This is a project cutting out letter M and using it as an effective bookmark. We need a cardboard, I have here one inserted in my ID holder. Measured at 2x4 inches. Start by folding it lengthwise then cut 1/3 inch as the foot of letter M stopping 1.5 inch before the top. From the middle cut straight across to meet the end of the other cut. Then measure 1/3 inch from the other end and cut across to the side as shown. Your cuttings should show something like this. Unfold it to show the letter M. This is a good bookmark for it holds the pages for it not to accidentally fall. Other side shown. Like something mysterious under the sheets.

Reminiscence of the Masskara Festival of Bacolod. For our project a smile for every page. The bookmark of smiles. For this tutorial, we only need a cardboard size 2 inces by 4 inches. Cut out the sides to create fuller edges. Half inch from the bottom, cut straight then curve up half inch. Half inch before the top, start cutting at a curve then stop. Do not cut all the way through. Remove 1/3 of the middle piece as shown. What is left will become the smiley. Cut the mouth like shown. Fold the middle piece to be able to cut triangles to where the eyes should be. Your bookmark should look like this now when unfolded. Letter O shown from this side. And the smiley is at the other side of the page in turn holding the page to prevent it from accidental removal. Stress free warm smile every time you open your book. Shown as a regular bookmark. With happiness inside.
