A galaxy of stars.

We three have been out catching stars as they tumble from sky to ground. It’s proving busy work thus far and a sea of paper stars litter both tabletop and carpet below.

Here is what we have managed to catch for you this Monday afternoon.

From Elaine,
I’m not saying they didn’t have their share of beauty and ego but in a time when stars were stars, pre botox and liposuction – those were the years!

These are my stars:  Paul Newman (1956), Humphrey Bogart (1952), Fred Astaire (1956), Ava Gardner (1959), Cary Grant (1956), Tyrone Power (1952), Marlene Dietrich (1951), Bette Davis (1952), Elizabeth Taylor (1956).

Now that we have collected our stars and wished upon them, our eyes and hearts are set upon capturing for you a kaleidoscope of butterflies.
