Butterfly Artwork And A Winner!

I've had a lot of questions about the butterfly artwork hanging in our playroom. This is such an easy project to do, and you don't have to limit yourself to butterflies.

After finding a Martha Stewart punch and trying it out on everything in sight, I found what worked best for my project. It sounds silly, but using this punch is so fun it can be addicting.

I finally found a use for all my old magazines.

Finding textures and colors you like is part of the fun.

  

I printed a layout using Excel so it would be easy to space the butterflies.

I laid the template over my project paper and used a sharp pencil to transfer the positions. I used textured scrapbook paper.

Once I had my layout, I used glue dots to attach the butterflies. I bent the wings a bit to give them a three dimensional look.

The matte has a plastic edge that creates a deeper space. I bought the frame and matte together as a set at Hobby Lobby.

Now you have a one of a kind piece of artwork!
