A Flicker of Inspiration: Beautiful Butterflies

I really love using Flickr. Not only is it filled to the brim with amazing photographs and art, but there are so many fun things that you can do with it. Today, I thought I would create a mosaic with a few of my favorites, and share it with you. Perhaps these lovely colors and shapes will inspire your next great project!

  6. They're so great, aren't they? I love the way seeing a lone butterfly can totally change the mood of your entire day. I wish I had a big yard that I could fill with plants for butterflies and other pollinators!
