Butterfly Collage

I have a really good friend named Anna who has really been there for me the past several months and I wanted to make her something special to show my appreciation for her friendship. Anna loves butterflies and when I saw this

 at The Crafty Crow I knew what I was going to do.

I went and raided my mom's punches to find a butterfly punch and found these

three different sizes of the same butterfly. That made me think about a different kind of collage that I saw awhile ago but I couldn't find it when I went searching for it. But I did find something similar to what I remembered.

I found this over at Craftster.

I liked both ideas so I did a combo of both.

Anna's favorite color is blue so I painted a canvas metallic blue. I wanted something simple so I just punched several butterflies in each size out of plain paper. I placed them on the canvas rearranging it till I like the look and then glued them down. On the larger butterflies I bent them in the middle a little to give some pop to the collage. I really like how it turned out and I hope Anna likes it.
