This is a project following the prompts for #dephemerember2023 hosted by @49dragonflies and @luiseheinzl.
4. Butterfly and 3 torn things
5. Salvaged birds
I started with a letter-size master board. For the master board just start gluing stuff down. Don’t worry too much about how it looks. If you have some blank spots, add more layers or some stenciling or some marks. If it’s too busy use some watered-down paint or gesso, or a layer of white tissue, to tone it down. Seriously, you can fix almost anything with another layer, and if you can’t it’s just paper.
Birds: I used the Sizzix Bigz Flying Bird #660259 to cut the birds from the master boards.
Butterflies: I used the remainder of the master board to cut 2 1/2” circles, which I then layered with a scrap of sheer fabric printed with butterflies. (The rest of this fabric is some cute curtains in my mother’s guest room.)
