Boxes and Butterflies

I was in the mood for playing with paper and glue and bits of lace again, but this time I decided to decorate a little box rather than just a tag -

I also made a quick customer tag to go with another order for those fascinating French parcel carry handles -

And I also made my Tag Tuesday tag, on time, woohoo!!! This week's theme was GREEN, which was a bit of a nightmare, because it left me with so many possibilities, it was such a wide field that I couldn't think of anything I wanted to do really.  But a local bootfair provided the answer, lol. Sunday morning we toddled off to a boot fair, and on one of the stalls I saw framed butterflies, real ones, and one of them was the most astonishing emerald green colour. And then I knew that I wanted to make a tag with lots of green butterflies -

I painted a white tag with a couple of different greens, and to soften it, overlaid it with some parchment paper. I love the sparkly flowers on the parchment! I spent some time on the net collecting green butterflies, printing them and cutting them out. Made some antennae for the bigger ones out of jewellery wire as well.

Toodlepip, and have a lovely day wherever you are xxx
