Butterfly Shadow

Yesterday In class, we cut out the shape of a butterfly. Then, we carved out pieces of the paper so the light would shine through the carved places to give the effect of each texture of the butterfly. Although you cannot see this, we layered pieces of paper on top of other designs of the butterfly to also give the effect of different textures of the butterfly. Then, we taped the butterfly to a blank, white sheet of paper and turned on the lamp light. When we took the picture, we saw all the outlines of the butterfly!!
