Frosty Friends

Happy Monday friends! Cards are always great fun to make, but today I'm excited to be sharing some cute Christmas ornaments instead. I recently received the Lawn Fawn stamp sets Frosty Fairy Friends and Ready, Set, Snow from the Butterfly Reflections Ink shop. I couldn't wait to use all of the adorable images in them, so I decided to mix and match sets to create these delightful decorations.


To start, I stamped my images on white cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I wanted my snow globes to have dimension so I stamped out four in total. Next, I colored my images with some Copic Markers. After the figures were cut out, I assembled the mini-scenes using my Lawn Fawn Glue Tube. 


Now to make them into ornaments! I began by punching holes at the tops of each globe using a one-hole puncher. Then, I added a double layer of foam tape to the back of each globe before attaching them to the blank globes. To create the hangers, I threaded ribbon through each hole and tied them into a bow. I thought they needed some finishing touches, so I also added some glitter glue for some extra sparkle. The glitter glue took a while to dry, so I set them aside a bit before hanging them on every object that would allow it.


These were so fun and easy to make, I already want to make more! If you want to check out my other Christmas crafts you can on Instagram @CaveWomanCreations! I wish you all the best week and happy crafting!

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

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
