Zentangle inspired butterfly


A zentangle-inspired butterfly for Animal Wednesday. HAW!

I went by a key shop and asked about old keys and was given a bag of keys to add to my collection. I believe I now have enough keys to do the rooster design AND overlap the keys so they look like feathers. I hope. I've been really busy and haven't had more time to work on it; I believe that will be what I do on Monday, Labor Day, since I don't have to work that day. We have planned a trip for this weekend up to Tok, AK (near the Canada border). I haven't been up that way in about 28 years. I'm really looking forward to it. Sweetie has to work Monday so we are headed back Sunday afternoon.
