Altenew: Season’s greetings

Hello crafty friends!
I’m up on the Altenew blog with my holiday greeting card to share with you using the Modern Deer stamp set along with the Poinsettia & Pine stamp set.
These two sets are a fantastic combo for Christmas projects.

Here is what I came up with:
To create this card, I stamped the deer from the Modern Deer set on white card stock using Mocha & Espresso dye inks, and then cut it out. For the background, I randomly stamped Christmas flowers from the Poinsettia & Pine set on white card stock using Evening Gray dye ink.
I mounted the stamped background on top-folded red card base using glue tape first, and then stamped the sentiment, added deer cut on the center of the card using foam tape.
Thank you so much for stopping by. Happy crafting!!

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

PPP November Product Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Hello crafty friends, happy Thursday!!
Welcome to the first day of the Pretty Pink Posh November 2017 Product Release Blog Hop! We have 4 brand new stamp sets, 6 new die sets, and (of course) mixed sequins in November! If you arrived here from the Cathy Zielske’s blog you are on the right track.

For my first card, I used brand new Wild RoseWinter Woodland sets along with the Christmas Friends set.
I started by stamping flowers & leaves from the Wild Rose set onto watercolour paper using VersaFine Onyx Black pigment ink. I coloured them with traditional Christmas colours of Distress ink: Festive Berries, Fired Brick, Mowed Lawn, and Evergreen Bough. I then die cut them with the Wild Rose matching dies. I stamped & coloured a little girl from the Christmas Friends set with Distress markers. For a pair of birds, I used the Winter Woodland set.
Before mounting all watercoloured die cuts, I stamped the sentiment from the Holiday Greetings set on the top right corner of the white paper panel in black pigment ink, added metallic gold washi tape on the bottom of the panel.

For my second card, I used the Joy Shaker and the Festive Holly die sets.
I filled up the Joy Shaker cut with the gold shimmer seed beads. I glued them using Glossy Accents.

SSS Let Us Rejoice

Hello crafty friends, happy Monday!
Today I’m popping in to share with you my watercoloured Christmas cards using Simon Says Stamp Let Us Rejoice Stamp Set I designed.

Here is what I came up with:
I stamped a Christmas flower bouquet from the Let Us Rejoice set on watercolour paper panel using VersaFine Onyx Black pigment ink. I then coloured it with some Distress inks, watercolour pencils, and water brush.
For the sentiment, I stamped it with Walnut Stain Distress ink, and then added the same coloured ink splatters around the stamped images.

For my second card, I also stamped the flower image in black pigment ink, coloured it with Derwent Inktense coloured pencils, and then brushed it with a wet paint brush. I stamped the sentiment over the watercoloured image with VersaFine Onyx Black pigment ink. I trimmed it down using the Stitches Rectangles panel die, and then mounted it on the Fog Gray card base using double-sided tape.
This is the day the LORD has made; let us REJOICE and be glad in it.
– Psalms 118:24 –

Flora & Fauna: Arctic Starry Night

Hello crafty friends! I want to share with you my Christmas cards today with so adorable Flora & Fauna Arctic Starry Night stamp set – it really caught my eye!

Here is what I came up with:
For my first card, I created a snowy night background with the Arctic Starry Night set. It is so lovely set!! I heat embossed (a kind of) constellations and trees onto watercolour paper panel in white first, and then coloured the background with Peerless watercolors. I added white ink splatters on it. Makes it look like snow or stars in the night sky.
I stamped & lightly watercoloured three polar bears, then fussy cut them. Once the background panel was completely dry, I mounted it on white card base using double sided tape first, and then added polar bears on it using foam tape.

For my second card, I made a simply watercolour card. I just repeatedly stamped trees on watercolour panel in black, and then roughly watercoloured each tree using Peerless watercolors.
Thank you so much for stopping by. Happy crafting!

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!
