Butterfly Bookmark Craft

Hello Creative Friends,
Hope your day is off to a good start.  Today I’m sharing another bookmark.  This one is made with chipboard, Designer Series Paper (scrapbooking paper), the Beautiful Butterflies XL Bigz Die for the Big Shot Die Cutting Machine, and some pearls and ribbon.  The Beautiful Butterflies Die is an exclusive Stampin’ Up! die.

Butterfly Bookmark With Chipboard

I adhered the designer paper to the chipboard on both sides and ran the die through the Big Shot.  Next I punched a couple holes into the larger butterfly and just one hole in the smaller one. 

On the larger butterfly, I ran ribbon up through the bottom hole and down through the other hole and pulled just a little through and indented the ribbon to a point with my scissors.  It was tight enough that I didn’t even need to tie the ribbon.

I then pulled the other end of the  ribbon up through the bottom of the small butterfly through the hole and knotted the ribbon and indented it also to a point with my scissors.  Other than that I just embellished with some half back pearls from my Pretties Kit.  The Designer Series Paper is called, Tea Party and the ribbon is Regal Rose 5/8 Grosgrain.

 Butterfly Ribbon Bookmark

I’ve seen people make these type of bookmarks with really long lengths of ribbon but I like things practical and so I just cut mine to fit my bible.  You can make your ribbon whatever length you want.

Other bookmarks can be found here.
