Birthday Dragon Slider Card

Hi crafty friends! It's Jenn and I am so excited and grateful to be back again designing for Butterfly Reflections Ink this term! Shameless plug for the store and Vanessa: I love how BRI carries SO. MANY. crafty brands and that Vanessa has been working her heart out through thick and thin... especially right now as she is working on regaining her health! So please remember Vanessa and check out BRI for all your crafty needs!

Okay, onto my card for today! I love it when a new product is super versatile and can go with many of my already loved sets like the Mama Elephant In the Clouds cover die that was released back in May. I immediately thought of all the balloon/flying/airplane type of sets that I have that would work well with this cover die. **Add to cart!** 😂

I used distress oxides to ink up the sky (tumbled glass) and the MFT Ray of Light stencil for the sunburst (distress oxides: squeezed lemonade, dried marigold). Then I splattered broken china distress ink to create a bit more interest.

For the images, I used Mama Elephant Me and My Dragon and colored up the images with Copic markers and white gel pen accents. To create a birthday dragon, I did some masking with a party hat from Mama Elephant Carnival Toppers and a present from Oh Kitty Tree. Then I fussy cut the images since I did some masking. The sentiment is from Mama Elephant Iconic Ornament stamped with Lawn Fawn rainforest ink. Love that teal color!

To create the slider, I used a penny, foam tape and squares, and Lawn Fawn Slide On Over dies.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Happy crafting! 💖Jenn

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
