Spring Has Sprung!

What a great way to celebrate the arrival of Spring ... 
and for Christians, the Butterfly is also symbolic of the resurrection!  
You can not only have the fun of making these beautiful decorations, but think of all the places you could use them!  Like ..... attaching a sturdy wire between the wings & onto the body and pushing the end into a flower pot filled with flowers.  Or .... tie fishing line onto the body (perhaps just in front of the big wings) and hang them from the ceiling, or off of a drapery rod!  If you position the fishing line on the body just right, they will look like they're flying and not just hanging. 
Really ... you are limited only by your own imagination.  
This looks like it could be the beginning of a very pretty Mother's Day bouquet!



Why is a butterfly a Christian symbol?  Because it represents "new life".

‘This means that anyone who belongs to Christ
has become a new person.
The old life is gone; a new life has begun!’
2 Corinthians 5:17 NLT
