Butterfly Weave.

It's a new challenge over at my
Butterfly challenge.


I would like to see yarn i.e. Wool or Embroidery Thread incorporated somewhere on your project along with a butterfly/s
Here is my inspiration for you.

I have used a pre coloured image by LOTV
from their Art Pad Set 19 ' Cute Cottage Garden'.
We used to make these cobweb/net designs
all the time as kids  from odds of wool
and an old kellogs cardboard box for the base.
I can remember making some quite intricate  ones.
I have just done a simple one here using
embroidery thread across one corner.
Sentiment is a gold sticker and I have 
mounted the finished piece on a pink card base.

Entering into the following challenges:
Lil Patch of Crafty Friends #17 Anything goes.
Pixie's Crafty Workshop #193 Use up your snippets (embroidery thread.)
Craft Your Passion #278 Anything goes.
Scrap  and Craft #13 Butterflies.
Tuesday Throwdown #261 Anything goes.
Through The Craft Room Door # Anything goes.
Papertake Weekly # Things with wings.

  14. Wow, this is so pretty. I love the yarn and have never done that before. It looks great in the corner. That is a pretty image with soft colors and the gold sticker is perfect with this. You have inspired me to get out my stash of stickers that I haven't looked at in years!
