Hello crafty friends, welcome to the Simon Says Stamp My Favorite Release Blog Hop!!
Simon Says Stamp released jam-packed full of fabulous products – so adorable cuddly critters, the beautiful flowers, and the bicycle! You will say that they are all your favourites!!
For my first card, I made a watercolour floral wreath card with my Wild Beauty stamp set. First I traced a circle on the centre of the watercolour paper panel very lightly with a pencil. I then stamped the flowers and leaves around the circle with several colours of Distress ink – I used second generation stamping technique. I then brushed the stamped images with water using waterbrush. For the sentiment in the circle frame, I used the Big Scripty Greetings stamp set.
I just couldn’t resist another play with the flower stamps. I randomly stamped the flowers and leaves from Sketch Ranunculus and Wild Beauty sets on the bottom portion of the watercolour panel using VersaMark Embossing ink, then heat embossed with Hero Arts White embossing powder. I then loosely coloured them with Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolor. I die cut the word “Faith” from the watercoloured panel using Painted Faith die and then mounted it using dimensional foam tape.
For my last card today, I used the new Beautiful Ride stamp set. Oh, I love that bicycle so much. Isn’t it wonderful?!! For the background, I randomly stamped the bicycle and flowers onto the Ivory card base using Stone hybrid ink, then added some dark shading with a Copic marker C1. And then I stamped the bicycle and other accessories on a separate watercolour paper using VersaFine Pigment Ink Onyx Black, coloured it with Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolor, then die cut it with Beautiful Ride dies.

Fantastic stamp designs and fabulous cards! I love the gentle explosion of colour in a circle in the first card, and I really have to remember that faded repeat stamping of the main image makes for such an effective background! Thanks so much for the awesome inspiration!

They are just beautiful cards
Yoosun, I can’t tell you enough how much I love that faith die cut card! I know you said maybe July you’lol start doing videos, I hope you do one on that particular card. Did you die cut Faith twice putting the white one back in the negative space left by the die cut? I don’t have the watercolors you have but I do have watercolor pencils. I’d like to give this a try when I get the painted faith die. I like the bicycle card as well. I like all your cards. :p please keep posting on Instagram, I love your work!
