I envisaged that it might well catch fire but I tried it anyway, and it worked!
I had some scraps of Cath Kidston cotton duck left over from the spare handle from the Sew Bag I made, I chopped them up and laminated them.
I added some ribbons and some of my beloved buttons and lo and behold my CK Bookmarks:
p.s that is one of my favourite books it was a gift from a friend 12 years ago and it is still in my top 10, when I am looking for something to read it's the book I pick up the most.
p.s. I have just noticed that every post this week has in some way been related to Cath Kidston, you would think I was on commission, but I promise I'm not I just love her stuff!
Back Soon ♥

You clever thing - and brave. I'd be too scared I'd destroy the laminator (or, more importantly, the fabric...). Great idea. And you can never have too much CK so I look forward to more floral posts :o) Lucy xox
Clever idea! They look good, too.
great idea for the bookmarks, they are lovely. lol with the CK! Its funny how we notice our own little style. I have noticed that most of things iv made on my blog so far are blue and pink!
What a good idea! I love that wiggley cutter! Where do you get those? Lots of love, Amanda xxx
Amanda, that cutter is just an interchangeable blade that I got with my rotary cutter, I love it and use it quite often.

Those bookmarks are great Kandi. Wouldn't have thought of putting fabric in the laminator, thanks for trying it out for us! (Was the fire extinguisher at the ready?) Lovely finished effect with the buttons too. Nicky x
Wow they look very effective Kandi you are so clever. I'm off to get my laminator out now :-)x
