SSS My Favorite Release Blog Hop

Hello crafty friends, welcome to the Simon Says Stamp My Favorite Release Blog Hop!!
SSS-MyFavorite-BlogHop-BannerSimon 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!!

YoonsunHur-20160422-SSS-A001For 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.

YoonsunHur-20160422-SSS-B001I 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.

YoonsunHur-20160422-SSS-C001For 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.

  1. Great last stop on the Blog Hop. I especially appreciated your use of watercolors on the floral card and the way you created the background for the bicycle card. Thank you so much.

  2. Hi… When I first arrived at your blog and saw the first card, I got goosebumps! It’s so gorgeous and beautifully done… I’m excited that I’ve already ordered the Wild Beauty stamp set from SSS the day of the release but now I will need the Sketch R. Set as well… Jennifer McGuire mentioned in her video that you designed these two stamp sets – wow… Congratulations on creating stamps that will bring much joy to fellow stampers! Thank you! Have a great day! :)

  3. What a way to end the hop, Yoonsun! All three cards are so very different but just fabulous. Glad I don’t have to pick a favorite but love the techniques you used on the first two cards. Congrats on a great release!
