Distress Inks on an A-Dork-Able Layout!

Hello!

Well, Samantha here again, and I'm sharing a super layout that I LOOOOVE. It's honestly one of my favorite layouts ever! I LOVE how it came together!
I used a TON of products from the Butterfly Reflections Ink shop, and had a blast making this!


To start off, I used some distress inks and lots of water to create the water drippage for the background! It turned out SO FUN! And it's just perfect for the photo of my littlest Mann at the pool last summer!


The Jubilee Awesome Mixed Bag from My Mind's Eye worked PERFECTLY to add embellishments around the photo and at the bottom, under the title! :) I also used lots of the wood buttons from Dear Lizzy to embellish my page - those are, hands down, MY FAVORITE embellishments at the moment!


I used some thickers to create the large title, and some tiny type to add the smaller title! LOVE how the two fonts look together! Oh! And those wood sunburst shaped veneers you see all over the page are so FUN!!

Lastly, I used some enamel dots and one more button to finish off the page! What do you think? Are you officially ready for summer like we are?


What's your favorite embellishment at the moment? I bet it's sold at the Butterfly Reflections Ink shop! There are SO MANY items for sale and the shipping is crazy fast! You'll be surprised!

Thanks again for checking out my layout!

Baby Tags featuring the We R Memory Keepers Fuse Tool!

By
Happy Monday! This is Kim Hamilton and I am so very excited to be sharing my first post with you for Butterfly Reflections Ink! This is making my first day back to work after a two-week break a happy one! I am sharing baby gift tags today, one of my friends is expecting and not sure what she is having so I made one of each! I used my  We R Memory Keepers Fuse Tool  for the first time and loved it! I cut my own  Tim Holtz watercolor paper  to the size of tag I wanted (2 3/4 x 4 1/4) and cut the edges with my trimmer.  I stamped my sentiments that are by  Lawn Fawn Hello Baby  with VersaMark ink and used white embossing powder. For the girl tag I used a mix of Spun Sugar, Picked Raspberry and Abandoned Coral  Distress Inks  and for the boy tag I used Peacock Feathers, Cracked Pistachio and Twisted Citron  Distress Inks .  I sprayed both tags with some water and dabbed it off. I then stamped my images by My Favorite Things...

Painting backwards....

By
Hello, hello!  Norine here from The Velvet Lemon blog .  It's been a week for introductions hasn't it, but let me just say how delighted I am to have been invited to join such a talented group of paper crafters, and to contribute here at Butterfly Reflections Ink!   Today I'm sharing with you, some cards I made by working backwards.  What do I mean, you wonder?  Well, it's a technique I sometimes enjoy doing, where you "smoosh" your water based ink pads on a craft mat, mist the colors with water and then drag your water color paper through it to create a pretty mess of color.     For today's cards, I wanted a blend of blues and greens (always a crowd pleaser) and yellows/pinks.  You will always be happier with the results when you keep the green/blues from overlapping with the yellow/pinks, because that just produces an unappealing mud color.   I used a variety of Tim Holtz Distress Inks for this project, but any wate...

By
Hey, hey BRI friends!  We're hopping today to celebrate the 4th Birthday of Altenew , one of our favorite stamping companies!  You should have arrived here from the Altenew blog , and we're glad you're here to share the excitement! There are prizes and inspiration and it's going to be FUN! With you today, is Norine from The Velvet Lemon  creating for Butterfly Reflections Ink  and I have some projects to share today, that I made using some recently released Altenew products .   First up, are these two cards created with the Mega Succulent stamp set .   I stamped the image onto water color paper using the MISTI , then turned on the music and sat and colored.   I used Faber Castell watercolor pencils so I could more easily control where the color would sit and then painted with a water brush .  I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of vellum, heat embossed with clear embossing powder to ensure that the ink wouldn't smudge...
