MFT Summer School Session 2 – Monochromatic

Posted on by

Hello crafty friends, TGIF!
Today is the last day of MFT summer school session 2. The topic of the day is ‘Monochromatic‘.
PrintA monochromatic colour scheme is created by taking any one of the twelve hues from the basic colour wheel and repeating it in various shades and tones. This scheme looks clean and elegant and very easy on the eyes, especially with blue or green hues.

Here is what I came up with:
YoonsunHur-20150717-MFT-Monochromatic01To create the card, I 1) Prepared a circle mask die cut, the same size as the Birthday Centerpieces Die-namics, and used mask die cut to adhere it to the centre of the white panel. 2) Stamped Tiny Stars Background on the white panel using Grout Gray dye ink. 3) Took off the mask die cut and die cut happy birthday circle from the stamped panel using Birthday Centerpieces Die-namics. 4) For the inside of the circle window, I coloured on the watercolour paper with After Midnight, Lush Lagoon, Summer Splash dye inks using a wet paintbrush. and then adhered it to the card base, added some clear sequins & beads. 5) Placed the circle window panel on top to finish it off.

MFT Summer School Session 2 – Complementary

Posted on by

Hello crafty friends, welcome back to MFT Summer School!
In MFT summer school session 2, we are dealing with color theory. The topic of the day is ‘Complementary‘.
Print
Complementary colours are any two colours which are directly opposite each other, such as red & green, orange & blue, purple & yellow. These opposing colours create maximum contrast and maximum stability.

For my first card, I take purple & yellow colour palettes.

To create the card, 1)I stamped Roses All Over Background on the white card stock using Pure Plum dye ink. 2)I die cut butterflies from vellum paper using Flutter of Butterflies Solid Die-namics, from Daffodil card stock using Flutter of Butterflies Lace Die-namics. 3)I die cut ‘Wish’ from Pure Plum card stock using Stars & Wishes Die-namics. 4)I mounted all elements as shown to the Daffodil card stock, added some clear sequins.

For my second card, I take blue & orange colour palettes.
YoonsunHur-20150714-MFT-PromoSS03
Blue and orange colour combination wasn’t familiar with me before but, I realised these two colours can make a really cool card!!

To create the card, 1)I stamped Tiny Stars Background on the white card stock using Coral Crush hybrid ink, die cut the left edge using Blueprints 25 Die-namics. 2)I die cut ‘happy’ from Orange Zest card stock, ‘birthday’ from After Midnight card stock using Arrow Greetings Die-namics. I also die cut the balloons from Orange Zest, After Midnight card stocks using Birthday Balloons Die-namics. 3)To finish it off, I mounted all elements as shown to the stamped panel.

Totally Awesome

Posted on by

Hello folks! I just want to share my cards with Hero Arts Totally Stamp set -it is definitely one of my favourite stamp set!!

My first card here:
20150109-STAR-EN-01
20150109-STAR-P01

Originally there are several building silhouettes in one stamp but, I wanted to stamp each with different colours. So, I cut and made 5 separate building stamps lol! I then used some post-it notes to mask the building images to stamp them overlapping.

20150109-STAR-EN-10I stamped buildings with several Simon Says Stamp dye inks from the bottom of the panel. I love, love, love all different coloured buildings!

20150109-STAR-EN-03
My second card called ‘Nightscape’
20150109-STAR-EN-04Imagine the city lights at night… What a romantic it is! Totally Awesome!!

20150109-STAR-EN-05

To create the background inside the window, I blended several Distress inks -Tumbled Glass, Peacock Feathers, Faded Jeans, and Seedless Preserves- using blending tool and spritzed a bit of water, Prima Bloom Pearl White, and Studio Calico Opaque White.

20150109-STAR-EN-06

My last card called ‘Watercolour Mist’
20150109-STAR-EN-07To create the background, I drew the circle lines in rainbow order, and blended the colours using detailer waterbrush. It is quite easy watercolour technique :D
