Frame

This little box frame has been hanging around in my 'to alter' pile for quite a while.  When I saw this meadow ribbon from Crafty Ribbons I knew I wanted to extend it in to a picture...

I gathered a few buttons, my butterfly punch and a blue Inktense colouring pencil.

I cut a square of watercolour paper to fit the frame and very faintly drew some cloud lines and blended it out with a water brush.

I added the flower buttons as if they were growing from the ribbon.  I added one butterfly with dimensional glue and suspended the other on thread.

Quite simple, effective and very fun to make!
