Butterfly Bookmark

Took a little break from Shimelle's class to work on a few challenges.   I really wanted to complete the Studio L3 Compendium of Curiosities challenge for this week (before it changed)- shabby chic.  So, I used that technique to make the background for this bookmark and also on the grungeboard butterflies. The background is plaster, and, as usual, the plaster worked beautifully with Tim's techniques.  For my theme, I used "connect," the prompt from the Sunday Creative. I like how the butterflies have their own connection to each other and how they are also connected (by the flight line) to the rest of the world.  I'm using this bookmark to keep my place in my Compendium of Curiosities!
