Enjoy the Little Things Card

Hello everyone! It's Cassie back today to share another card with you all. Today's card was one I wanted to make mostly because I couldn't go another week without using this cute bear image from the Reverse Confetti Party Pals stamp set.

I stamped the bear onto an A2 piece of white cardstock. I used the Over Coffee ink from Catherine Pooler to stamp the bear. I love this soft brown color and it works well with my Copic markers! I also stamped the bear on a die cut scalloped circle from the Outside In Stitched Scalloped Circle die from Lawn Fawn. I don't have the matching dies for this set, so I used a craft knife to cut out the outline of the bear. I wanted the image to be inset in the kraft card stock. It doesn't look as clean as if you had the matching dies, but I certainly didn't mind it!

I used a mask to cover the bear and do some ink blending using the Heffy Doodle Scribble on My Heart stencil and the Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide. Once that was done I added the scalloped circle with some foam tape, making sure to line it up with the stamped image.

Finally, I stamped the sentiment from MFT's Stylish Sentiments stamp set with some VersaMark and heat embossed gold embossing powder. I added it using some more foam tape as well. To finish off the card I added some white paint dots to the scalloped kraft piece, and my card was complete! Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you enjoyed my card!

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...

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...
