Playing with paint and paper.

Today I took out some old books, magazines,
some Juicy Couture tissue paper I'd saved. Then I got my
glitter, and glue to play with.
Actually I have not used any glitter on this yet but will add some to the Butterfly wings later maybe.
What fun to cut and paste and rearrange bits of torn paper and things.
Then took out my sharpie and added some little details to make a pink butterfly girl.
This was made for Inspiration Avenue the theme this week is Hello Spring.

    Collage is great and I like how you've painted her face.The glitter always adds a touch of magic.
    The total composition is quite lovely.

    Collage is one of my favorite forms of art. I think your Juicy tissue paper is perfect for this!
