Check out my Simply Hybrid blog post where I show how I made a super simple bookmark and then how I added a few steps to create a few different looks. Hope you enjoy! https://the-lilypad.com/simply-hybrid-bookmarks/
Yes, Laurie Ann's kit is amazing! And bookmarks are a great starting out point for hybrid. They have to be flat by nature..and even you mess it up somehow they can still be used as intended.
I love all your sample Sarah! I just rearranged my desk yesterday so my Portrait can have a home all plugged in and ready to use. I didn't want to use getting it out and getting it plugged in as an excuse not to use it at all. Bookmarks sound like a great starting point too!
