15 Marbles

Moments.Musings.Memories. ❤️Gathering little marbles from ordinary days and keeping them for our memory jar. ❤️

“Party” is the new favorite word in Aadyaland..and when there is a party,there has to be cake!
So,when these butterflies came visiting,here’s what happenned-
First they kissed the birthday girl,Aadi


and said,”Happy Birthday,Aadya” and they gave her gifts.(the pine cones)

Then,Aadya asked them,their names and gave them some flower cakey. The butterflies ate the cake and then Aadya took them to Fly Fly with her. And then,when they were all tired,she sang for them.

To make these butterflies,we used-
*Scouring pads in blue,red and yellow colors.
*sticky tape
*Straws

Fold the scouring pad in half and cut it into butterfly shape.Slit the top portion of the straw to make antannae and stick it to the back of the butterfly with sticky tape. Cut bits of the left over scouring pads and press these bits on to the butterfly.It should stay.We tried using glue,but,it didn’t work.
alternatively,you can also make the markings on the butterfly using water color.
And you are ready for your butterfly party!

This is inspired from Aadi’s favorite show-Giggle and Hoot! This is going to be our entry for the Artsy-Craftsy March 2010.
