I used the butterfly from MFP:
Daffodil Greetings- Stamp Set

I made this for a friend of mine who loves to read. 
I thought this butterfly and these papers
 would make a pretty bookmark.
It was a super fast and easy project.
 It took less than 10 mins. to make. 
I die cut several scraps of paper that
 coordinated with the floral lace. 
I cut some burlap and some pearls.


I used hot glue to 
hold all the layers together.
 I sandwiched the lace,
 burlap and pearls between 
two of the dp circles.

I hot glued a paper clip
 to the back. To reinforce 
the hold, I put a small
 rectangle over the spot I glued.
