Bunny encouragement card by Gladys

 

Hello everyone! Gladys here with fun encouragement card to share with you using Mama Elephant products.

First, I die cut the bunny because I knew it would take up the most space on my card. This bunny is from the Favor Bag Accessory dies which is meant to be used with treat bags but it's also great for cards. I glued the elements together with liquid glue since some of the pieces were small and it also gave me time to move it in the right place. To add interest, I added stardust stickles to the bow, glossy accents for the eyes, and a combination of kitsch flamingo and spun sugar for the blush on her cheeks.

Next I stamped the bunnies from the Little Line Agenda with milk chocolate ink. I colored them with Copic markers and cut them out using their coordinating dies. I went with a soft pastel colors because I had Easter on my mind. 
To create the scene, I used the Sweet Feline scalloped edges die cut from Bristol smooth cardstock. I used shaded lilac, salvaged patina, kitsch flamingo, and saltwater taffy distress oxide inks for the background. I grounded the stamped images using a grass border cut from green cardstock. I darken the edges with mowed lawn to add some depth. Next I adhered the panel onto a pattern paper from MFT Stamps pretty in plaid paper pack. 
For the sentiment I white heat embossed onto pink cardstock and adhered it onto the card. That is all for me today, thanks for joining me and have a wonderful week!!

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...

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 wate...

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...
