Poor Orland and Wilfred our air traffic controller trainees can't find a plane in sight. That's because they are looking in the wrong place and for the wrong thing. It's not a plane, it's a hot air balloon being navigated by an elephant and a swarm of butterflies. Everything is flying!
This is a digi stamp from Paper Pretties. The bashful blue has little puffs of white clouds. Image is colored with Copics. I can't believe that the only bit of glitz is the gel glitter pen I used on the butterfly bodies and antennae. Hope you like it. Even more so I hope Sean likes it.

LOL, the ideas of the butterflies flying made me think of that saying about when a butterfly flaps its wings in X, a tornado happens in Y - or whatever the original saying was. Your own weather butterflies would be great for hot air ballooning, no problems with the winds not being right .
