Crazy Crafters February Blog Hop - Casing Patty Bennett using Watercolor Wings

Welcome to the Crazy Crafters Blog for February. This month we are excited to be CASE'ing Patty Bennett but even better we get to hop along with PATTY BENNETT herself! Woo Hoo!
We hope you find great inspiration from the projects. The full blog lineup below will help you move along to see all the projects. This is a blog hop you will not want to miss out on!

My project inspiration came from Patty's FAMOUS Watercolor Wings Card Collection & Pinterest.

Today I have created a Butterfly Bouquet! I know Patty loves Butterflies. I was inspired by the colour combinations that Patty used above. You could use any combination of colours to create your own unique butterflies. I have attached the butterflies to Floral Wire (Spotlight) adhering them with Dimensionals in between each layer. I then bent the wires around to make it look like the butteflies are flying around. I added a touch of grass with strips of green cardstock.
How many butterflies do you think I cut out? Read on for answer.
