Sculpt a tree of butterflies out of paper.
Supplies

card stock
glue
scissors
Step 1: Butterflies
Cut several square pieces of card stock in different sizes.
Fold each square and cut out half the shape of a butterfly.
Attach butterflies to the tree after creating it.
Step 2: Paper Strips
Strip paper into various lengths.
Apply glue to one side of the paper.
Twist the strip of paper.
Step 3: Roots
Use glue to attach one end of the twist to another.
Step 4: Tree Trunk
Cut wider strips of paper.
Place glue on one side of the paper and twist.
For thicker and denser tree trunks, repeat the steps by placing a twisted piece inside another.
Coil thinner twists around the tree trunk to create bark layers and girth.
Step 5: Branches
Repeat the steps for the tree roots.
Attach them to the top of the trunk.
Add more twists to create fuller branches.
