Beautiful Butterflies!
I just couldn't help myself I just had to show you this fun, easy & quick crafty thing to do before I go to bed. I first saw this at Kirsten's who directs you to Ali Edwards where you will find the original directions, her blog really is terrific - take a look!
This would have to be one of the quickest things I have ever made - only about an hour to do. I used a Carla Craft paper cutter of a butterfly and a magazine - as I am a self confessed magazine junkie there was NO WAY I was going to use one from my collection so I bought a Notebook mag and chopped it to pieces! They are raised slightly using double stick mounting tape and there you have it!
Hey it's 1.45am and I have finished my first project for the day ... or is that 1.45am and I have finished my 4th project for yesterday???
Enjoy your Saturday!

They look gorgeous! The colours are lovely.
And your header is great(I can't believe I forgot to tell you how amazing your quilt is).
AND the jammies! You have been incredibly prolific. Now , go! SLEEP!!!

The Butterflies are brilliant! Isadora has a huge butterfly hanging from her ceiling that she waves Chao Chao! (or Dow Dow!) to whenever we leave the room... also her first favourite toy was a small butterfly named Fifa... Im sure she'd go crazy about a whole butterfly collection on her wall! Thanks for sharing! PS. The husby is doing better... and the quilt is awaiting its final stitches! Take Care!

Great idea! I laughed about the magazine! I am like that. I would buy one at a garage sale to cut up!
