Monster Wishes with Avery Elle

Hi Crafters! Ali here and welcome back to the Butterfly Reflections Ink Blog. Hope your weekend has been amazing so far! I have been working on a fun card for you today using the Avery Elle Peek-a-boo Scary stamps set.

I began by creating a black gate-fold card and then cutting a circle with a circle die from the two front panels (I cut half-circle at a time). I then inked up some white card using the English Brick Wall Stencil and cut a slightly larger circle in this piece, trimming the edges and cutting in half to fit two front panels of my black cardbase.

I inked an extra piece of white card and cut a circle for the inside of the card. I coloured the images with my Copic Markers and cut them out. I cut extra shapes for the front monsters so they had a 'backing' when you opened the card (if you have the dies, just cut an extra die for each monster from black card). I adhered three monsters to peek out the front of the card and one inside with the monster wishes sign & sentiment.

I used the Heffy Doodle sentiments 'Hey' and Happy Birthday to die cut from black card. I layered 4 'hey' die cuts and embossed them with clear embossing powder and adhered to one front panel (left hand side).

Hope you enjoyed the card - I love the peek-a-boo sets they are so much fun!!

Thanks for joining me

Baby Tags featuring the We R Memory Keepers Fuse Tool!

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....

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

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, then tore the vel
