Awhile back, Paper Crafts Magazine asked me to make a "botanical" project for an article in the July/August 2011 issue. I just received the copy in the mail! When thinking about this project, I found this beautiful pillow in the Pottery Barn catalog and used it for my inspiration...
The Pink Paislee
"Butterfly Garden" line was perfect for this project! I couldn't believe how similar the colors and products were!
I used the
Dragonfly paper in the background and painted one of the new wood shapes with a Heidi Swapp paint, added a Butterfly Garden
Press On (flowers on right side), a piece of lace, two
Clear Pop butterflies, a
Bauble, a little
Metal Charm, some
Ephemera.
I chalked the papers a little bit around the edges with brown chalk.
This project came together so fast. I love it when that happens!
