Dictionary art on an old shoe box lid-DIY

I'm still trying to figure out the decor for the front table, so tonight I decided to do a free project printing a picture of a butterfly on an old dictionary page I had on hand. I swear that dictionary set I got at the good will for $3 has been such a great investment for me and my many projects.  I googled Images of FREE printable vintage butterfly's, printed it at home on our color printer on the dictionary page.  I didn't have any canvas on hand but i did have an old shoe box lid on hand. I glued the printout on top of the shoe box lid and painted the edges gray. I made sure to paint onto the edges of the print out to make it better blend on to the canvas, aka shoe box lid.
