"Beauty Within" Floral Birthday Card

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 family I used on the flowers and made light dots all over the panel. I used an embossed rectangle die to die cut that panel then I removed all the release paper from the foam tape and flipped over the press n seal and placed my arrangement onto my panel. Press down and then removed the press n seal. Then I took a Black Sakura GLAZE Gelly roll pen to the floral center dots. I added a bit of Wink Of Stella shimmer pen to my floral petals and a Happy Birthday Sentiment.

Thats it. This card was easy to put together. What took the most time was adding all the foam tape. Thanks for stopping by. I hope you like this card. If you have a moment check out Butterfly Reflections Ink for these items and any other crafty items you may need....or want,lol.

Thank you,

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

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
