pressing flowers

Even though our projects together have a 5 min. time span this one was pretty fun. Although I couldn't quite answer his question " why are we pressing flowers mama? " I'm not sure actually. Any ideas for pressed flower projects?

Once they are for sure dry my mother use to glue them to card stock and make cards out of them. Pansies worked great for this!

Thank you rebekah for your insight, I'll do just that, bookmarks seem like a great idea.
