I'm here with another butterfly card today. I used distress ink to color the butterflies and I thought it turned out pretty good. This is something I haven't done alot of, but I like the way the butterflies turned out so I will probably start using distress inks more. I used a sketch from the Sweet Sketch Challenge.
