We’ve gathered a whirlwind of St Patrick’s Day Crafts for Kids here at Red Ted Art. Somehow, this wonderfully fun holiday hasn’t received much attention from us over the years, so it’s definitely time to change that! Earlier, we shared some GORGEOUS Paper Quilled Shamrock Cards/ Art, along with fabulous Paper Shamrock Decorations, and today.. we’re focusing on the simple Shamrock Corner Bookmark Design for St Patrick’s Day!
This is a wonderful addition to our large collection of Corner Bookmark Designs! I adore these tiny Kawaii Shamrocks – they are incredibly fast and easy to make.. and their sweet Kawaii faces make them absolutely charming (or so I think). Create an entire set of Kawaii Shamrock Bookmark Corners and share them with friends and family for plenty of good luck!!! The ideal Paper Craft for children!
These Shamrock Bookmark Corners pair SO BEAUTIFULLY with our Kawaii Rainbow Bookmark Corners too! Stop by and take a look!!!
Shamrock Corner Bookmark – Supplies
- One green paper square (approximately 15 x 15cm works well. We used an A4 sheet, sliced it in half and trimmed it into a square)
- Scissors
- Pencil & pens for embellishing
- Pink paper scraps for kawaii cheeks and glue
How to create a Shamrock Corner Bookmark for St Patrick’s Day
As always, we’ve prepared the essential Shamrock Bookmark Corner VIDEO for you.. plus some helpful step by step directions to follow underneath!!
How to create a shamrock bookmark – step-by-step directions
Start by folding your traditional Origami Bookmark Corner (we have step by step photo directions available for you to view whenever you like.
After creating your basic GREEN Origami Bookmark, start drawing a shamrock shape. To keep it simple and “even”, split the upper right and left triangles in half. The two top sections form the first “heart” of your shamrock.
Next, sketch two hearts underneath along with a stem.
Be certain that the “heart edges” lie flat against the bookmark corner’s edge. If you round them completely, the bookmark may come apart..
After cutting out the shamrock (be sure to retain those flat edges), trace around it with a black pen to make the shape really “stand out”.
To finish, add a Kawaii Shamrock face if you’d like.
