Yabba Dabba Doo! with Mama Elephant stamps

 Hi everyone! Peggy here with this cute Flintstones themed card with Mama Elephant  stamps. When I saw this release with the dinosaur stamps I knew I was sold. These are my first Mama Elephant stamps ever. The stamp set I used for this card is called Me and My Dinosaur.

I also got the stamp set with the miniature dinosaurs to match, which I will probably use on a future card for the blog! Let me show you how I made this card.

I started by cutting a card base and two panels with the Small Slimline Die from Lawn Fawn. I cut one panel out of white cardstock and one panel out of Lawn Fawn Kraft Cardstock. I trimmed down the kraft panel to make a floor for my cute little stone age images to stand on. I used a Ranger ink blending tool and some Tea Dye distress ink to make the panel look more like sand and to give it some interest. On the white panel I ink blended some Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide using the Lawn Fawn Cloudy Stencil.

I stamped my images with some Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink and colored them with my copics. I looked up Flintstones images along the way as a guide. I particularly had so much fun coloring the pet dino, who is HUGE in this scene. I even drew on his blue collar with a copic multiliner.

Lastly, I cut the words Yabba Dabba Doo from some Lawn Fawn Sunflower Cardstock using Finley's ABCs and the exclamation point from Finley's 123s. I think this would make a super cute card to congratulate somebody on any achievement! 


Dinoooooo! (Sorry, that had to be done :))

Long distance hugs!

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

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, then tore the vel
