Butterfly Reflections, Ink

Hey All! Kelly Fusco here. For this card I'm using Altenews "Beauty Within" Stamp & Die set . I have the coordinating stencil but I didn't need it or use it for this card.  To start off I stamped my Images onto 80lb Neenah cardstock.  I used Copics to flick color onto them. I used: RV10,RV21,RV23 & RV25 V20,BV20,BV01,BV02 & BV13 BG10,BG23,BG45, & BG13 YG11,YG03,YG25 & YG17 the centers I used YR24 & YR27 Then I die cut everything out.  Once I laid out how I wanted them to appear I used Press n Seal and press it onto my layout, flipped it over and added glue and foam tape.  Now comes the FREESTYLE....I took another 80lb panel of Neenah and I used the CHISEL side of my black Copic and from the outside edge I swiped in like a brushstroke. I repeated that down the left side of my panel.   It doesn't have to be perfect as much of it will be covered plus I love that organic look. Then I took 1 copic from each color ...

Hey Butterfly Reflections Ink fans! Kelly Fusco here.... thesunshinecrafter I enjoy and appreciate color but I struggle with coloring, like many people.  So for this card Im using the "flick" method.  I used Gina K "Caring Flowers" stamp set & Waffle Flowers Deckled frames dies for this card.  To start I stamped my image with Memento Tuxedo Black onto 110lb Neenah. I used copics: BG11,BG32,BG34 & BG15 BV01,BV02  RV21,RV23,RV25  & a wee bit of YG13 for the leaves.  Here you can see the flick coloring and for the stamen which got drowned out from the markers I added White Gelly Roll pen. When you color using flicks you leave some white space and you don't have to be perfect or worry about blending. Whoo hoo. Thats for me! After I finished my coloring I used Versafine Onyx (pigment ink) for my sentiment and I added Hero Arts Clear Embossing powder on top, heated n melted it.  I die cut my panel with the...

 Hello my fellow Butterfly Reflections Ink Craftinians! That's a mouthful isn't it,lol. Kelly Fusco here for my very 1st blog post & I couldn't be more excited.  For my card today Im using Concord & 9th Heartfelt Blossoms stamp set. Boy this is a beauty. I'm a floral stamp lover and this baby creates a perfect, easy to color floral frame.   To start off I stamped this large image onto Arches Cold Press Watercolor cardstock with Versafine Onyx & added Hero Arts clear Embossing powder on top (heat of course until melted) Then I chose my favorite Tombow markers (837,026,603,098 & 403 for the soft blue) I didn't go straight to paper. I scribbled my markers onto my glass surface and picked it up with a Ranger waterbrush and simply added the color to my images. Once done I used some prismacolor pencils for a bit of dimension & depth.  Once that was done I added some black splatter (black acrylic paint)  with a bit of water to make it spla...
