Key Bookmarks and Centerpiece


     These key bookmarks make lovely party favors.

Materials:
*Gold cardstock
*Ribbon
*Pen
*Scissors
*X-acto knife
*Ribbon
*Vase
*Marbles
*Branch

Directions:
*Print out a copy of the key template below.  Alternately, if you have a Silhouette CAMEO or some other sort of die cutting machine that allows you to import designs, you can import the template and let the machine do all the work.


*Cut out the key shape and trace it onto the back of the sheet of gold cardstock as many times as you would like bookmarks.
*Cut out the keys, using an X-acto knife for the fine details.  If you're doing this by hand, as I did, it could take quite a while, depending on the number of keys you want.
*Cut off lengths of ribbon and tie them through the tops of your keys.
*Place the branch inside the vase and fill the vase with marbles or accent gems heavy enough to hold it in place.
*Hang the bookmarks from the branches to make a centerpiece for your party.
