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.
