Instructions
Select craft papers for the bat bookmark. I’m using black colored craft paper for the wings and ears; and purple for the body (oval shape). Trace the template patterns on the selected craft papers and cut them out neatly using scissors.
Apply a small amount of glue on the middle of the wings pattern and place the oval-shaped cutout ring on the middle of the wings. Press the oval-shaped paper firmly against the glued part of the wings to make sure that they are attached.
Attach the ears and the eyes.
Use a black marker to draw a thin curved line for the mouth and then attach the 2 triangular (fangs) cutout papers aligned to the curved line. Make sure to attach the fangs with their pointy ends facing downwards. While the glue dries, grab a square paper (8 inches x 8 inches) and make an origami corner bookmark.
Attach the paper bat on the triangle side of the origami bookmark. Allow the glue to dry completely before using the bookmark.
