Superhero Cuties Assemble!

Hi crafty friends! Before I begin my schpeel about my card, I wanted to make sure you shop the BRI Labor Day Sale!!! It's ends today so be sure to shop shop shop!

I was so excited that Clearly Besotted came out with these adorable superhero plushies in the August release. I mean, c'mon, how cute are they?!? And my kids love these stamps so buying this stamp set was a no brainer! So I decided to make a fairly simple card that highlights the cute images... and I chose just the Marvel characters because Marvel + DC does not exist in my universe hahaha 😂. (I'll have to make a DC card another day!)

If you are on Instagram, you probably have seen Alberto's amazing Copic coloring and he colored up these images like a boss! Full disclosure: I used his images as a guide for my own coloring because I am not a coloring genius like he is! Mine are definitely not like his masterful art, but I was pretty glad they still turned out looking like the Avengers! (Although Thor's blue lightning did not show up in the picture, sorry!)

For the background, I used Distress oxides to ink blend and then splattered black soot Distress ink and white acrylic paint. I added the spiderweb detail to Spidey's spot because he is Spiderman so how could I not?! 😂

Supplies used:

Clearly Besotted Plushies Assemble

Mama Elephant Comic Cover Wonky

Distress Oxides: festive berries, spiced marmalade, mustard seed, twisted citron, mowed lawn, salty ocean, blueprint sketch

Distress Ink Black Soot

Spiderweb die (similar to this one by Lawn Fawn)

Thank you SUPER duper 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...

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...

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...
