Good day and happy new week Steemians. For this creative contest, I will be making an origami heart corner bookmark.
A bookmark as the name implies is any piece of material used to mark a particular page in a book.

Items needed in making the origami heart corner bookmark

From the picture above, the items needed are;

  • pen (any preferred colour or type).
  • Glue.
  • A piece of cardboard paper.
Steps involved.
  • First you fold your paper in two like a triangle as demonstrated below;

  • Next, you open it up and fold it the other way to give another triangle.

  • Next, you open it up and fold it into two as seen below.
    All these lines made by the fold makes the paper flexible and easy to work with.

  • You then open it up again and fold one side of the half to the middle as seen below;

  • This is where all the lines you made while folding and opening makes it easier to form the required triangle.
    So you open it up for the last time the turn it to the front and bring the sides together to form a small triangle as demonstrated below;

  • Next, you open one side of the triangle and fold it in to form another triangle as seen below;

  • Next you bring down the side you earlier opened, the side I'm holding onto from the picture 14 below.
    You bring it down to get picture 15.

  • Now you bend the part you just brought down into two as seen below;

  • After bending it into two, you then open the sides of the bended part to form a little triangle as demonstrated below;

  • When this is done, you proceed to fold in the sides of that two little triangle as shown and seen below;

  • Now you raise that folded side of the triangle up and thereeeeee, we have our origami heart corner bookmark.

  • To make it flat enough, you add glue in-between the folded are as seen below.
