And thats all, you’re done. Tutorial/Source: diytutorialslizzy.blogspot.com

If you are like me who loves to carry lot of books on summer vacation then you will love making this simple icecream shaped bookmark.

Making this pretty ice-cream shaped bookmark is not a big task. All you would need is a cardstock paper, a pair of scissors, some glue, sharpies, a quote of your choice and last but not the least a popsicle stick.

Start by cutting the cardstock paper into the shape of a popsicle, and if you wish you can color it as well. Then glue a nice quote to write on it, and last stick it to an ice-cream stick. You can make this as a handmade birthday gift to kids who love reading books.
