I’m back with another 3D Printing and Tattoo Paper project today. I had some left over terrazzo patterned tattoo paper, so I thought this DIY Terrazzo Bookmark would be an awesome project. I made a simple design in Silhouette Studio and then used my Silhouette Alta to 3D print the design. This little beauty was the final result. I love that I can use it as a bookmark and paper clip. Read on for the full tutorial!

DIY Terrazzo Bookmark – Instructions:

If this is your first 3D project and you need additional help, I did a post on setting up your 3D Printer and making your first project.

  1. In Silhouette Studio, create your bookmark design. I used the rectangle tool, then created 2 internal offsets. I then used the eraser tool to get rid of the tops of the offsets and used the line tool to create the design below
  2. Save your design
  3. In the Silhouette 3D Software, open your bookmark design
  4. A pop-up will appear: Import As
  5. Select Extrusion – then design will appear in 3D. Adjust the height (or other dimensions)
  6. Select the 3D Print Tab on the right
  7. Select the Quality (I used the Standard option)
  8. Press Print. The machine will heat up and print – you will see the countdown of time as well
  9. Use the spatula to gently remove the 3D design and any extra filament
  10. Once your bookmark is printed and cooled off, it’s time to cut the tattoo paper. Follow the instructions here to print your terrazzo tattoo paper
  11. In Silhouette Studio, adjust/ make sure your design is the same size as your 3D bookmark
  12. Load your terrazzo tattoo paper (with the clear adhesive applied) and send your design to cut using tattoo paper settings
  13. Remove the clear adhesive paper and apply the terrazzo tattoo face down to the top of the bookmark
  14. Optional: After the tattoo is been applied, you can apply a sealant to protect the pattern
