Butterfly Collage

I’m sure you’ve seen this great project floating around!  It caught my eye when I saw in on the long thread’s top 100 list of 2008.  My husband has always talked about getting a butterfly specimen art, but they can get pretty pricey.  So this was the next best thing!  I made it for him for Christmas and really liked how it turned out. 

We had gotten the frame at Ikea a while back for down in our basement, but it never got a picture put in it.  I tried to pick out different ads from magazines that had things he likes in the pictures.  I picked out pictures of cars, cereal, spaghetti sauce, and tulips – his favorites!  Check out my flickr stream for detailed notes on the collage. 

As a side note, I was listed in the top 100 list of 2009 for my pencil pouch tutorial, wow!
