My art group, Prim and Whimsy GirLs is having an art challenge. The theme is All A Flutter. So many wonderful things come to mind...birds, butterflies, a kite, laundry drying in the wind.... I could go on.
All this week our members will be listing their wonderful creations on eBay. Just use the search term, PWGL Flutter to see them.
And what did I create you ask? Butterflies. This frame of butterflies seems to have an escapee....
Each butterfly is cut from an aluminum can.

What a beautiful way to make colourful butterflies!
Cut from aluminum cans. Now that couldn't have been easy! And they are all so delicate and shaped so perfectly.
I love the patterns that you chose, they make such colorful butterflies!
Well done!!
Aluminum cans are SO THIN any more that it is liking cutting heavy paper.
I used a pair of pliers to pull off the top and used an ordinary pair of scissors to cut down the side of the can & around the bottom to flatten it and then cut out the design.
Super easy! :0)
oh wow! those little butterflies would make a really cut wind ornament of some sort... Tarabeth thinks there cute - she says "mommy look at the cute butterflies". even your granddaughter appreciates your art! :)
Maybe Tarabeth needs this picture for her room....
And I'm working on a kinetic butterfly sculpture...just need more cans!
Wow Jeanne ~ Your butterfly art looks beautiful , love how you made the butterflies from recycled aluminum cans.
I tried the cornbread recipe , it was delicious. Hope you don't mind that I put a link on my blog post to the cornbread recipe. I thought it was worth sharing , so tell your hubby , that it's a hit in our house :0)
