Forest fairies with Annemarijn

Hi crafty friends!

Today I'm back with a cute interactive magical forest scene to share with you. I just discovered the swish 'n pop pull tab and now I want to use it on every card I make. It's easy to put together and it gives a great little extra on the card so I love it!

I started with stamping al the images with memento tuxedo black ink on white cardstock. I used the fairies and flowers from fairy friends, the house from frosty fairy friends and the little squirrels from let's go nuts. Next, I cut and colored the images with copic markers. For the wings of the fairies I used some quickie glue pen and dipped them in some prisma glitter. I think I'm addicted to prisma glitter.. But I just love the look so much.

Next I cut a piece of watercolor wishes paper to 4 1/4"x 5 1/2 inch for the background. Then I die cut the puffy cloud backdrop, lift the flap tree backdrop and the stitched hillside borders from white cardstock. From the puffy cloud backdrop I cut the lower cloud apart so I can use it upside down as a tree. I used distress oxide mowed lawn and twisted citron to color it. I also cut the lift the flap tree backdrop apart to use one tree and colored the tree with distress oxide gathered twig. I also die cut the swish 'n pop pull tab for the fairy that's coming from behind the little fairy house. Then I assembled everything together. I hide the fairy behind the house and when you pull the swish 'n pop pull tab she comes out for an extra surprise. Last I die cut the everyday sentiment banner and made it green with twisted citron and stamped a sentiment on it.

I hope you like my card this week and see you next week with a new card! Have a great week.

Lots of love,

Annemarijn

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
