Butterfly Reflections, Ink

Hi everyone! Peggy here with some August moodboard inspiration. All the craft brands are releasing their new Halloween goodies and when I saw the moodboard it just spoke to me! Let me show you how I made this early Halloween card and how to easily stretch your supplies for different occasions! I am still in love with the Bubbles of Joy mice from Lawn Fawn and today they are cooking together with one of the mice from A Creature was Stirring . But I don’t own any of the cute Halloween sets from Lawn Fawn. However, I thought the upside down Snowglobe from Ready, set, snow , would make an awesome cauldron.

I wrapped some black and white baker's twine round the part of the panel where I wanted the raccoon.

I am so happy to be here among such talented crafters and hope to inspire you with my work! Today’s card is a thank you card inspired by this month ’ s gorgeous moodboard featuring rose gold, powder pink, icy mint and deep space blue. I started by cutting a side folding slimline card base from white 300 gsm paper measuring 7 x 8.5 inch, scored at 3.5 inch using my EK success mini scoring board . From rose gold mirror board I cut a panel measuring 3.5 x 8.5 inch and a panel of white 300 gsm cardstock to do some ink blending measuring 3 x 8 inch. Next I taped my panel to my Tim Holtz glass media mat (travel size). I used three colors of distress oxide pads , starting at the bottom with dried marigold , then spun sugar and tattered rose . I used my Lawn Fawn Cloudy Stencil and some chipped sapphire distress oxide ink to overlay a cloud pattern. Lastly, I used distress o...
