I have a quick card to show you because I’ll be back in a few minutes with a fun surprise post to get your weekend off to a sweet start!

I love it when I get to play with a 2sketches4you sketch.  They always have such beautiful inspiration to go along with each sketch and I love putting my own twist on it!

I decided it was time to finally stop hoarding all my Crate Paper products and I thought they were so lovely with PaperTrey Ink’s Butterfly Dreams stamp set.  I stamped the butterflies, distressed the edges a bit with ink and then scuffed them up a bit more with my file by Basic Grey.  The back is spritzed with Tattered Angels and some smooch shimmer and I couldn’t be happier with the result!  (If you click on the images you can really get a better look at the shimmer.)

Be sure to stop back by 2sketches4you for more beautiful projects using this week’s sketch!

Other supplies: Ink, ribbon, and paper by SU!, Twine by PaperTrey Ink; Distress stickles; border punch by Martha Stewart

This is gorgeous! Maybe one of my faves… something about the color combo and vintage look…
