BUTTERFLIES


Marie aka Ozstuff has chosen BUTTERFLIES for our word at Take a Word this week and  here is my interpretation.

Thanks Marie, for another inspirational word.

Credit to the late SuzieQue for the lady 'butterfly' (now in the public domain) which I think started life as a magazine cover design.   I extracted her from her original background then layered and blended her on three separate layers using the Overlay blend then I added her to my new background before finally adding some sunshine and butterflies, courtesy of NumbBumm, to complete the picture.

Thank you for looking.

I love this image, Ann, and it is perfect for this week's theme. Your artwork is stunning and totally frameworthy. Wouldn't it look scrumptious hanging on a wall? If it were printed on canvas, it would look even better.

Fantastic.
