More with Braided Ribbon

Last week I shared about a braided ribbon challenge that really got my creative juices flowing.  After making the butterfly bodies, I decided to braid a longer piece and make a "book worm" for this card. 

The little book was cut with my Silhouette, then a few holes were punched in it and the book worm threaded through it before I added the little googly eyes.   I didn't take a picture of the inside of the card, but on the inside I created a little pocket, just the right size to add a gift card to a bookstore.  A fun and quick little gift - in addition to the gift card, the book worm becomes a book mark! 

I'm not yet sure what occasion I will be using this for, but can quickly add a "Happy Birthday" or "Thank You" or whatever when the time comes.
