"A Butterfly Swap..."

a perfect way to herald the coming of Spring. :)

Mine fluttered out ...3 for the trade...plus a hostess card...

and these fluttered in...
L-R from
"Blackdog" in Texas, Kat in North Carolina,
and Linda in Australia...:)

"Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued,
is always just beyond your grasp,
but which, if you will sit down quietly,
may alight upon you."
~
Nathaniel Hawthorne

I have always loved butterflies and want to call them 'flutterbies' instead!
Gorgeous colours and designs as ever Margaret.

Think I'll have to find some new words to express my appreciation of your art...each time... everytime... I am like 'Wonderful', 'Gorgeous',
'beautiful' etc etc etc....

They ARE Too GOOD, Margaret.

I LOVE butterflies too...so very colourful and delicate...they make your heart flutter with 'em.

Now, You've inspired me to draw some of my own:) Thanks!

Wow, they are all so beautiful. I love your two on the left ... so delicate and intricate. Your ink work is wonderful!

And I should really comment on your site more often. I stop by almost every day and then I just lurk in the shadows. Your work is lovely!

You've got such depth to these. It looks as though I would feel the detail if I ran my fingers acrossed them.
