papilio paris


Sunday's here! The more relaxed day of the week, no rushing out the door to try and catch my bus to work....instead a chance to tidy up, finish off some cards and take some photos to share with you.
The beautiful butterfly, 'Papilio Paris' was a present from my boyfriend and the books I bought from a charty shop last week.
 I'm trying to teach myself the names of wild flowers, I love the faded and slightly old fashioned illustrations.
Have a lovely Sunday.

    I have a bug book given to me recently- it was actually a book that i grew up with and loved the drawing the bugs as a little girl. x
