Happy Friday, crafty friends! I’m so excited to be a part of the Simon Says Stamp Fun and Festive Release Blog Hop! You may be starting the hop here or coming from Yana’s blog and seeing her amazing cards, either way I hope you enjoy all the fabulous inspiration from the hop!
Yay! I enjoy this time of the year the best! It is quite clear that we will be a busy bee creating Christmas cards in the fall/winter season. :D
For my first card, I used the Therefore Background Stamp along with the Dancing Deer & Rina Snowflake Dies. I stamped script sentiment on watercolour paper panel using VersaFine Onyx Black. I then roughly watercoloured to the stamped panel using Altenew Watercolor 36 Pan Set, added opaque white ink splatters.
I die cut Dancing Deer from glitter white card stock & Rina Snowflakes from white card stock. Once the background panel was dry, I mounted the panel on white card base using double-sided tape first, and then added all others using foam tape.
For my second card, I used the Mod Trees Background Stamp along with the CZ Design Merry Die & Winter Scene Set. I stamped Mod Trees on watercolour paper using light coloured dye ink first, and then trimmed it with Stitched Rectangle panel die. I then watercoloured over the stamped images. For the sentiment, I used the CZ Design Merry Dies.
I stamped & watercoloured deers & trees from the Winter Scene set, die cut them with the matching dies, and then adhered them between sentiments using foam tape.
I’m a classic red, green, kraft and white Christmas colour combo type of person, what about you?

Great release!
Beautiful cards!!!
Beautiful cards! Love the use of bright colors that you wouldn’t traditionally see on a holiday card.
Love this Fun & Festive release! Awesome cards! I am in love with the dancing Deer!
Love the texture of the watercolor paper against the glitter cardstock. Your cards are always bright and fun.
Lovely cards!! Thanks for sharing how you did the multicolored trees from the mod tree background stamp! Very clever!
Both of your cards are amazing. I love the way you broke up that big background on the first card by using the snowflakes and deer.
Hey, I loved how you watercolored all those tiny trees! So festive! Your wreath and deer card was so unique too! Just so Christmasy! 🎄 You made this new release by SSS shine and showed us the versatility of all the new stamps and dies! 🤗❄️💛✨🎄
Wow love the look of the Merry card! Thanks for the inspiration
Such pretty cards, Yoonsun! I love the beautiful background showing off the lovely reindeer! Thanks so much for the inspiration!
Love those tiny deer with the big sentiment
Your cards are so lovely! Up until now I’ve seen cards made with just the outline of the dancing deer. I love how you backed it with the glitter cardstock. So pretty.
I love the deer on the first card and how you created the multicolored background on the second. Great idea!
Oh my Yoonsun these are beautiful.
I tend to like traditional Christmas colours as well and most often I stay with that for my Christmas cards. However, once in a while I go outside of my comfort zone on that but not often.
“therefore” stamp makes for a great card base! bold backgrounds with delicate die-cuts = so pretty!
Beautiful cards.
Thanks so much for sharing…
What a great start to some cute Christmas cards. Loving this release.
Such wonderful winter cards!! Love the loose watercolour sentiment background to the sparkley deer. I also really like the colourful mod trè background on the second card. So fun!! Great creativeness
Great watercolor backgrounds! I need to try this instead of always using printed paper.
I really like the Therefore Background Stamp background you made.
Fabulous cards! I love the therefore background stamp on the first card!
Beautiful cards
Lovely cards! Thanks for the inspiration!
Really beautiful cards – love that little deer!
Beautiful cards!
I love the festive background on the second card! And the jumping deer on the first is adorable! TFS!
Fabulous!
Great cards Yoonsun, I love especially the first one. That deer is so delicate and because of the ouline very versatile. Thank you so much for the gorgeous examples with the new SSS release.
Great cards!! Love the one with the tree background!
Love the trees in the background of the second card
The die cuts of deer and trees sprinkled around
the sentiment makes for an interesting card.
thanks for sharing

What lovely Christmas cards! I love the non-traditional colors with the wonderful sentiments, reindeer and snowflakes! Thanks for the inspiration!
Great cards! Loved the way you used the Mod Tress background stamp.
These are a really different way of looking at the products. I like how you backed the deer with sparkle paper; it helps it pop on the busy background. And how fun to see the scene builder stamps outside the scene! They work so nicely with the mod tree background. Thanks for sharing!
Your cards are very different and unique, and I love them! :)
I love that therefore background sentiment… your card is beautiful; and I like how you used the dies to embellish between the sentiment; it’s so cute. I have come to love Kraft backgrounds of my cards… it think it’s classy. Last year I did make some cards stamped on ivory where I did some watercoloring for the first time … it was so fun !
Your cards are so pretty! I really like the colors that you chose on the reindeer card! The reindeer and the snowflakes are on my wishlist.
both cards are so gorgeous!
fantastic! Love the reindeer card!
Beautiful cards!! The snowflakes and reindeer is my favorite. So pretty!!
The layered style is so pretty!!! Love these cards!
Super cute cards
I love the elegance of the deer with the splash of color on the card base! So pretty.
Beautiful color pallettes!
Elegant and festive… beautiful creations!
Great backgrounds on both of your cute cards. I like to use traditional colors too.
Love both your cards with those awesome backgrounds…especially the reindeer card!
Very beautiful cards. Love the background you have created with the sentiment in the first card.
very nice cards
Such wonderful cards!
love your colour combo on these gorgeous cards
