My craft cave.. Where my #art happens! :) #photoadayjune (Taken with Instagram)

I was inspired by THIS post to make my own version of the canvas art.  I used my Martha Stewart Butterfly paper punch (same I used for the mobile), a white canvas board ($2 at Ocean State), purple paint, glue stick & paint chips (free at Lowes).  So this definitely was a cheap project to make since I already had most of the pieces.  I started off my drawing the shape that would contain the butterflies in pencil.  I punched butterflies in about 5 different shades of purple then I pressed the center of each butterfly with glue onto the canvas, giving it a 3D effect.  I free drew the quote in pencil & traced over it with purple paint.
