1. Take coloured card, 5cm x 10cm, and bring the top corners of the rectangle to the bottom centre to make a triangle, creasing the folds. Using the templates from our website, cut a large moth wing shape from patterned paper and fold down the centre. Glue to the triangle to cover the flaps.
2. Cut the small wing and body pieces from patterned paper or coloured card, then fold in half. Glue the top of the small wings to the top of the large wings and place 3D foam pads under the lower sections to raise. Decorate the body with washi tape, wrapping the ends around the back. Fix to the bookmark with 3D foam pads.
