Big Warm Fuzzy Hugs

By
Welcome back after a wonderful Holiday season!  It is time for me to give you all hugs and say it has been a blast designing for you this winter term!  Thank you all for your support and love, it means the world to me! 

I have a sweet card for you today that is a crafty hug from me!


All the products I used are from the Butterfly Reflections, Ink store:
I began my card by creating an 8 1/2 x 3 1/2 card base which is just the right size for a standard or size 9A envelope.


For the background, I first die cut a stitched piece of Bistrol, inked it with abandoned coral & tattered rose and stamped the two sentiments in Versafine black from Fuzzy Hugs & Snow Friends stamp sets.
I then die cut multiples of the Big Warm Fuzzy Hugs die and inked the top one with scattered straw.
On the blue banner, I heat embossed the sentiment in white and used foam tape over the large word die.


Next, I stamped the cuties from Fuzzy Hugs and Snow Friends stamp sets in Lawn Fawn jet black ink, colored with copic markers, and used my scan n cut to cut out, though you can always use the coordinating dies listed above.  I used a white gel pen to add a few accents to the images.

To finish my card, I added some clear domes, crystals and a few white nuvo drops.

I want to give a big hug to Vanessa for giving me the opportunity to design this term with some amazing ladies (love you girls!) and I loved every single minute!  Thank you all!

Love Always
Candice

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
