Hello Stampers! Mr. Mailman brought me some new paper! Nothing like a box of new paper to make a girl's day! This Cosmo Cricket caught my eye right away. These are scraps, but I can't show you what I did with the other pieces until Friday for the sketch. You ready for another sketch? I'm ready.... I'm ready! (in my best 
Spongebob voice) I hope you'll join us. This week at The Lounge the theme is Nature. Cindy is hosting and knocking all our socks off! So, today, I thought I'd get out my In Flight set and get it inky. I'm still using the dirty technique to get that beautiful distressed look. I used Antique Linen Distress Ink, my craft mat and the sponge tool around the edges of the main image. I stamped the butterfly twice. Once on the cardstock, which I colored with Copics, then again on the designer paper, which I cut out and glued only the center and popped up those wings by adding a foam square under each wing. I added some Crafty Sparkles and some Sakura Black Glaze and it's all pretty. :)
Hope you are having a great week, thanks for stopping by! See ya tomorrow for the OCLDT sketch!

This is beautiful, Cami! I do have a question about the distressing, however? Did you stamp the butterfly first and then distress around it with the antique Linen ink or vice versa? Just curious. See ya tomorrow!!
Oh my gosh, my socks are knocked off here as well bebe!
have a great day!

soooo pretty! love these papers with your butterfly-wonderful!
I stamp first, then distress. Just smoosh the ink on the craft mat, then do circles with the sponge tool grabbing a bit of ink and lightly in the same circular movement, hit the cardstock. Repeat. Tim has some videos you can watch too. I think it's something you just have to DO... and no be scared of. :) Thanks for the comments girls.
That is really pretty! I am enjoying all of your 'dirty' cards. :)
Just GORGEOUS Cami! I LOVE this set and that paper is just awesome with it!
