SC188 Birthday Butterfly

3 posts in one morning.  I just had to do this weeks Sketch Challenge over at Splitcoast though.  I finished my card and realized that I didn't use any embellishments or distressing.  That doesn't happen often.  I think the stamps speak for themselves, so they are the stars today.  All images are from

Innovative Stamp Creations The ornate background, crackle and butterfly are from the About Me! sheet, the sentiment square from Nature Silhouettes I & the swirl is from Rustic Artsy Swirls.  I used Eggplant, Pale Plum, White & Sahara Sand CS.  Inks include Sahara Sand classic dye ink, Eggplant Adirondack pigment and Stazon Royal Purple for the vellum butterfly.  I sponged the edges with the eggplant.
