Spooky snow globe with Peter

Hi everyone! It's October already which means I'm fully into making Halloween cards. It's my absolute favorite theme for card making!

I had so much fun making this spooky snow globe. I used the Magic Iris Snow Globe Add-On from Lawn Fawn to make the globe. I just popped back in the circle that normally is the opening for the Magic Iris.

For the base color I ink blended some Speckled Egg Distress Oxide and blended around it with Wilted Violet. I added some metallic watercolor splatters as well as distressing it with water.

I cut the base out of glitter cardstock and decorated it with the word 'Boo!' that I cut using the Olivers Stitched ABC's. If you don't have the exclamation mark from the Olivers Stitched 123's set, you can cut up an 'I' to make one yourself.

I used my Quickie Glue Pen to add some glitter to the bottom of the letters. I used some chunkier glitter on part of the edges of the globe too.

The last thing I did to decorate the globe is adding a cobweb using the Cute Cobweb from Lawn Fawn. Of course I also added a little spider!

I added some ghosts from Booyah and pumpkins from Pick of the Patch to make a little scene.

I made a background by using the Plaid Stencils from Lawn Fawn to make a striped background with some fun Halloween colors. I used Distress Oxide for that. I made this card before I saw the new BRI moodboard, but this card fits perfectly, ghehe!
I die cut it with the Outside In Stitched Rectangle Stackables so that I have a little border visible from my kraft card base.

I hope I could inspire you to get crafty yourself and I hope you have a great rest of the week. As always, feel free to ask me any questions. You can find me on Instagram. I will be happy to help!

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
