Paper Dragonflies

While playing with paper scraps after finishing scrapbooking this afternoon, I made these adorable little dragonflies. Their wings are made of 'paper selvages' (the often white strip of paper that is at the bottom of some 12x12 pieces of scrapbooking paper, telling you the brand and color) and their bodies green paper scraps. Their tentacles are vellum strips.

I had rather hoped to be able to string them together and make a mobile, but it didn't work. They were all topsy turvy. Ah well. I could still use them as gift-wrapping-decorations and pin them to my bulletin board.
