I love museums and old school museum displays. I also love butterflies.
I've created my own butterfly specimen display using a ATC Display Tray, adding a few extra details, and boatload of fussy cut butterflies.
I've kept the embellishments conservative on this project but I haven't left it completely plain. The corners each have a piece from the Petal Corners set added, and I've added a sort of name plate using the Stackable Labels Shape Set.
I've also numbered the specimens with the Tiny Number Plates - Silver
I'm really pleased with the result. Best of all, it didn't take ages to create this piece!
If you'd like to see how this all came together I have a video walk-through for you HERE
And here are all the bits and pieces you'll need to make your very own specimen tray:
