Stencils for cutting:

Carved stencil transfer to felt. You can make parts of different colors (for this every detail you need to draw on the color that you want to do it), and you can use the felt of the same color. Next, cut out our butterfly.

Such a butterfly can be attached, for example, to a piece of wire or chopstick, to make a decoration for a flower pot. To do this, cut not one piece for the butterfly, but two identical details, front and rear. Then you need to thoroughly glue them with each other, putting a wand between them so that it takes the middle of the butterfly figurines. A stick with a glue gun can be glued to the back of the figure so that it does not fall out. On the front, if desired, you can glue the cut parts of other colors or simply to decorate.

You can also make a butterfly from felt as follows.

First, cut out of the felt of one color of the butterfly larger, and then cut one longer the same butterfly, but smaller and from the felt of another color. When parts are cut, they need to be glued together along the line of the center: to glue the one with a smaller butterfly.
