Some thoughts for Summer, Nature, and Inspiration!

I've stumbled upon the passages below a few times each now.  Each resonates inside of me for a different reason and has such inspirational qualities.  I had to share them with you all.  I hope that you enjoy them and can find something magical!

Creating a fluttery Butterfly!

For my most recent "Alter It Monday" post at Posh Designs, I created this Butterfly! 

 

You can see the step by step tutorial on the Posh Designs Blog located here.

I'm thinking of creating a whole collection of these butterflies to hang in my Living Room window as I can't keep a plant alive for anything!  At least these butterflies will not eat much! 

Have a great day!
