Dam I love you

Hello Crafty friends! Alix here showing my project for this week. To create this card, I added lots of imaginations. Why can't we have different colors of trees instead of green trees? One of  Dr. Seuss's movie called Lorax came up to my mind. So I colored my trees in pink and blue as well.


This is card is fairly simple but cute. I colored all images with Copic markers and set to the side. To prepare the background, I ink blended with Tim Holtz distress oxide in Cracked Pistachio, then splattered droplets with mixture of this ink and water. To create the hills, I used Lawn Fawn Stitched hillside border die to cut. Then I ink blended the bottom parts with Tim Holtz distress ink in Tattered Rose.

I glued the first layer of hill directly to the background, then created some dimension using foam tape for attachment of top layer. After arranging all images onto the card, I stamped sentiment using Altenew dye ink in Rouge and Memento Ink in Rich Coco. To light up the green background, I added Pretty Pink Posh 4mm Sparkling Clear Sequins and 6mm Sparkling Clear Sequins using Multi Medium Matte



Here are some references for Copic colors that I used:

Pink Tree: RV21,RV23
Blue Tree:BG10,BG23
Green Trees:YG01,YG03,YG06
Mouse:W00,W1
Beaver Tummy:C0
Beaver Skin: E31,E33
Beaver Skirt and Bow: RV10,RV21,RV23

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  Snuggle Bunnies  for the girl and Magical Dragons for th

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 water based inks w
