Pastel Green Prayers with Crystal

Hi there crafty friends! Crystal here on this gorgeous Friday with a card made featuring the newest release from Concord & 9th , the all time favorite sentiments from Honey Bee Stamps, confetti & Scallop dies from Pretty Pink Posh and the Lawn Fawn's Stitched Trails die.

About a week ago, I saw a photo on Instagram from Concord & 9th showing how the blooms could be easily separated. That was the end of my self control and ordered these babies from Butterfly Reflections.

To make this card, I started with a patterned paper from "Gather" 6x6 paper pad trimmed to size. Die cut right in the center with Lawn Fawn "Stitched Trails" Lawn Cuts. On a separate piece of white cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from Honey Bee Stamps "Prayers" Set using Hero Arts Pastel Green. Then stamped leaves from Honey Bee Stamps "Country Bloom" set using a gray ink.

The ribbon was then created by cutting the sentiment using Pretty Pink Posh "Scallop Border" Dies on top and bottom. With green cardstock I die cut the flowers from Concord & 9th "Detailed Bloom". To finish I added some gorgeous silver confetti mix from Pretty Pink Posh.

This color combo is one of my favorites and the sentiment could easily be exchanged.

Well, that does it for me today. I hope you have a great weekend.

Happy Friday!

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

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
