Now I know it is not actually a ball ... I did read somewhere that a group of butterflies is known as a Kaleidoscope of Butterflies. I say I read it somewhere ... I may well have dreamt it up ... I do that on occasion ... well quite often actually ... anyways ... I can't spell Kaleidoscope so ... Butterfly Ball it is!
We have a sunny and windy day here in Cambridge ... I don't think I shall venture out ... just stay in and craft ... coool! I am expecting a couple of visitors later ... the Crafting recluse in me is saying ... just ignore the door bell ... of course I won't ... that would be rude ... and if they read my blog ... well they are unlikely to come now anyway :0) That was a joke ... of course they don't read my blog!
Okey Dokey ... if you would like to see how I made the Butterfly ... erm ... Ball then all details can be found on the Bubbly Scrumptious blog here.
That is me for now then ... I am way to eat eggs ... yummy chocolate ones ... if anyone knows the correct term for a group of Butterflies ... you know what to do! Would n't it be nice if it was a flutter!

I am very clever and it is a Kaleidascope of Butterflies *actually, I asked Mr Google and he told me but don't let on LOL*
Gorgeous colourful art Linda..love it .. have a good day...erm, ignoring your visitors and eating chocolate...at least you won't be ignoring the chocolate and eating your visitors PMSL x
Beautiful, beautiful art work. Lovely colours.
This is soooo pretty! Just what we need to think of better weather and sunnier times. I've just bought the butterfly stamps, and am itching to use them, I suddenly don't feel like doing any housework today...Hope you're having a great Easter, Judith x
Oooh love this Linda. Butterflies are my absolute favourites and I neeeeed those stamps. I hope to get them at the weekend as they are top of my list together with some TSS stuff. So, LBCrafts will be my first stop!
Hugs

The scallop chip you used is great, and just love the colours and the butterflies.. Enjoy your choccy - see you Saturday!
oh linda i love this...and you are totally right about the group of butterflies...i almost died of joy when we realised that it was a kaleidascope {i have no idea how to spell it...} is so cute and just thinking about it makes me happy...which is odd really cos i'm totally afraid of butterflies!!!
Ohhh this is so pretty, lovely work and sooo different
hugs June xxxxx
lovin this ,it is so different and colours are brill xx jo xx
Lovely colourful piece Linda !
Oooh just scrumptious, I love the butterflies and great tip for using the pin with the beads, hadn't thought of that one. Fab colours and great design. Thanks.
LOL Bxxx
Scrumptious! Love this combination of colours and the butterflies are such fun! Is that the big butterfly or the little one??
Lovely ball of flutterbies Linda!! And actually the collective noun for butterflies is a rabble or a kaleidoscope!! I have to admit I prefer your kaliedoscope to the term rabble... it doesn't seem to suit!
Absolutely lovely Linda, pretty sure that a group of butterflies IS a kaleidascope (though no idea how you spell it either), well either that or its an urban myth lol.
Will be taking delivery of my very first Distress Inks in the next couple of days (four of them) and I will be looking back through your blogfor all your fab hints and tips!
Great tip about putting the beads on a pin to get them straight, one of those things that sounds so straight forward yet never would have thought about it myself!

Love all the butterflies! Colors are yummy!
Are you getting fed up with me telling you how talented you are LOL. This is just gorgeous :)

Stunning colors!! Awesome piece!! You have done an amazing job on it!
Lovely, and so colourful! I once went to the Valley of Butterflies in Cyprus, it was amazing, and this reminds me of that! :)
What a wonderful "flutter" of butterflies Loving all the bright colours you have used Your right it is a flutter by the way
MInd you just checked it seems it could also be swarm or rabble or other nasty not butterfly ish words I prefer "flutter" so I say it flutter so there ...ner lol
gorgeous!!!
Thats your art, not what a group of butterbugs are called
Love those butterflies - they look gorgeous. I had a lovely time looking around here - thankyou!
I checked to ...seems it is 'swarm' ...or 'flutter' but could also be 'Rabble'???? ..I think Flutter is best.
Love your Butterfly Ball
