More Butterflies.

 Morning and I have more butterflies to share. I used the Heffy Doodle die cut frames with the aperture piece on 3D foam pads. Once again I paper pieced the Chocolate Baroque butterflies with Crafters Companion p, paper, and added 3D foam pads under the wings. The Tonic die-cut sentiment I layered three times for strength and stencilled the background with a dotty Creative Expressions stencil.

  11. Oh, my gosh, you do the most amazing job with those beautiful butterflies! Not so sweet is the spider bite on your ear. I had a mystery bite like that on my thigh. I felt the sting when it happened and, boy, did it burn and itch and swell and turn all red. I think it must have been in my pants leg when I put them on. I sympathize with you!
