@@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark Awww thanks sweetie!!! Hugs are always welcome and treasured, especially from someone as sweet as you. Sending big fat hugs back to you, along with butterfly kisses...( My mama used to give us butterfly kisses by fluttering her eyelashes against our cheeks, it's a very sweet memory for me). Lotsa love dear Mark!!! 🫶

Thank you so much! I love color and love mixing colors. Greens, teals and purples and hot pinks are my favorites together these days. 🤗

[@lisabrown3840]

Another perfect project! My daughter is 18, autistic, and loves butterflies! This will be perfect for us to work on together. I also want to add that I've loved watching your videos ever since I saw you on an episode of "She's Crafty," where you made the lamp out of plastic cups (a project I still have yet to try lol).

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

Wow, thanks so much Lisa! I loved flying to Canada to film that show. It was so much fun. If you're interested, I have a patreon page where I share lots of content I don't share anywhere else. www.Patreon.com/MarkMontano

Holly! You should make copies of your own butterflies for this project. That would be just beautiful!

[@lizmarin9568]

So pretty Mark! Butterflies are my spirit animal, lol!!

Hi Liz! You're a free spirit! I love it!

So gorgeous! I am practicing some free motion quilting so I can finish up a dinosaur quilt for my soon to be here (in August) great grandson.

Wonderful! That sounds like so much fun!

I love your butterflies Mark. I never knew there were glitter glue sticks. I almost bought the huge Alexander Calder book when it came out 10 years ago. It was $100 back then. Now I see it on Amazon for up to $1,000.00. ❤😊

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

OMG! I have been wanting that book for so long. Try thrift books. It's still expensive, but it does pop up every once in a while for a bargain.

@@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark I did make some photo copies of some of the best pages while at work. I will keep my eye out. Maybe I can find 2 copies.

Dude!!! I just found your channel!!! I can't stop watching!! You do amazing work!! I especially love this Mobile! Where is the link to print the butterflies? You have a new follower!!

What thickness of paper is that? It seems like regular copy paper not card stock.

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

It's a cardstock...not sure the weight but definitely thicker than regular copy paper.

[@jackieperry7912]

So beautiful 🤩 butterfly's are my absolute favorite and these look so easy to make I will definitely be making some. Do you know if they would hold up the decoupaging or should I spray with a sealer? Im making a jewelry stand to hold all my 19 inch necklaces my bracelets, earrings yes they are sets. I want it enclosed so I'm making a wooden cover for it and I'd love to put butterflies on the cover. Every time I check in on your channel I get such wonderful ideas. TFS

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

I'd try some different sealers....

[@marymendoza3351]

Just fabulous Mark! So lovely…did you flip the printout backwards when you applied the baby oil? I’m going to try doing this one 😊

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

Yes, I did, though it doesn't really matter as long as everything is dry.

[@LilNerdy1107]

I've been meaning to make some type of a mobile for my craft office, and now I think I know what kind! Do you have any suggestions on what I can use instead of a gel press? I don't have one and just spent a bunch on upgrading my crafting desk.

[@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark]

Try watercolors on their own. They might not blend as well, but they will work.

[@LilNerdy1107]

@@MarkMontanoMakeYourMark Thank you so much! I'll tag you on Facebook whenever I make them!

Did you use a Lazer printer? I have a jet printer and am wondering if it would smear

I use an Epson ET 2760 printer, I find a jet printer works well but give it a test!
