| supplies: butterfly punch, book pages, pattern card stock, glue, dental floss,. |
 |
| I punched out over a hundred butterflies from the book pages and then about 30 or so from the card stock. |
 |
| I placed the first butterfly under the floss and glued the whole surface, I took the second butterfly and folded it in half and glued half of it down to the butterfly under the floss. |
 |
| the third butterfly i just added glue to the right hand side and glued it to the butterfly under floss and the second butterfly. |
 |
| I thought it showed better with the card stock where I put the glue. |
 |
| the first two butterflies |
 |
| the third one added. |
 |
| here is how they are both arttached. |
 |
| this is the finished mobile |
 |
| I love the shadows on the wall, I had a tough time balancing the mobile . It does look crooked a little bit. I am thinking of adding some beads to it too. |

 |
| well I made spagetti for dinner tonight and these are the cans my semi-homemade sauce came from. They were just screaming "decorate me, I'm too good for the recycle bin". |
 |
| this is our microscopic mantel so I have to get creative with what goes here. |
 |
| this is the left-over stick tree from Christmas and now is home to my pink crochet hearts and some dollar tree gerber daises. Don't you just adore the pix of my kids???? I am praying the kittens don't destroy this while we are at school trw. |
 |
| playing with my stamping up stuff, I didn't have a gem to match so I colored a clear one with a Sharpie. |
 |
| I found a circle stamp that fit my Fiscars circle punch, this card took about 5 mins to make. |
 |
| this is made from coffee filters, I added some glitter to this after I assembled it and then scrunched it up. |
 |
| these are made from double sided pattern cardstock. I used brads to hold the layers together. |
 |
| this flower is accomplished by punching about 5 or 6 of the same 6 petaled punch. You cut the first one, and then remove an additional petal as you cut the remaining 5 punched flowers. Then you glue the two petals cut apart together and the layers get smaller as you go. |
 |
| these are EK success punches some are stamping up and from Joanns |
 |
| I layered three crocheted flowers together. |
 |
| I learned how to crochet flowers from Youtube. These flowers take like 5 mins to make. I played with the petals and was able to get this layer flower. |
 |
| of course I had to add a little bling to the center. |
