and Distress Inks. I decided to make a set of cards. Here they are....
(if you want to see this picture larger, click HERE)
To create these cards, I stamped four butterflies in black onto white cardstock. I colored them by adding distress ink to each one (barn door, wild honey, shabby shutters, and chipped sapphire) and then sprayed them heavily with pearlized water. Here's the shine close up...
I cut them out after they dried and to finish them off, I stamped THIS background stamp (my new favorite) in tone on tone color for each card. Then I added a greeting and some black string for the butterfly's antenna. Check out Judy's awesome creation HERE.
Thanks for stopping by. I'll be back tomorrow to wrap up the HA pairing up challenge...
