This is a fun card that features a corner bookmark right on the card but then the recipient can use the bookmark, which I thought was cool.
Ok here are the directions for making the corner bookmark part, which is the flower blossom part on the finished above card.

Now score those lines and fold back the 2 trianges.

I placed a piece of double sided tape to the OUTSIDE of the flaps (the black smudge you see in the photo is on the tape)

I took a piece of matching white cardstock that measures 2-1/16 x 2-1/16 an cut that in half on my paper trimmer so I have 2 triangles. I took one of the triangles and adhered it over the flaps so it looks cleaner.

I used a scrap of the TAC More Mimi paper collection for the border with 2 blue buttons layered on top. I added some beautiful raspberry ribbon from Mimi ribbon and the white blossom with silver brad. The pink flower is from a fabric coaster I found at Michael's, I cut the flower from the coaster. So that's the bookmark part.
I took the same paper from More Mimi and adhered that to the white base cardstock. Since the paper is double sided I had to flip a part of the cardstock up. I stamped "hello" (from Doodle Bugs TAC stamp set)in Perfect Plumeria. The girl image is from the sunday stroll TAC stamp set. I've been practicing my coloring and I colored this image in with my watercolor pencils using Goo Be Gone and the blending stumps. I really like that technique! I added a little sparkle to her using the Stardust Clear Gelly Pen. I cut her out using my Kai scissors and used a pop dot to layer her on the More Mimi TAC paper.
Here is the bookmark in use:
