Shimmerz Paints – Truly Grateful

Hello crafty friends!
I’m up on the Shimmerz Paints blog today with my autumn-themed card using some Inklingz Shimmering Watercolors. For today’s card, I tried to stamp solid autumn leaf images instead of colouring.
yoonsunhur-20160921-spaints-001To start, I die cut a piece of watercolour paper using SSS Basic Rectangles die. Next, I coloured directly on the solid autumn leaf images from the Penny Black Nature’s Gifts set using some Inklingz shimmering watercolors: Honey Do List, Olive U Truly, Mochachino, Can’t Elope, She Packs a Punch, Naughty or Nice, and Dear John Letter. I then stamped the image on the watercolor paper panel. Once the panel was completely dry, I stamped the sentiment from the MFT Geometric Greenery set on the bottom half of the panel using VersaFine onyx black ink. Lastly, I mounted the panel on A2 top folded white card base using double-sided tape.

For my first card, I used so beautiful Merry and Bright Boughs Stamp Set and Merry Labels Dies. With the Merry and Bright Boughs set, you can build your own Christmas wreath but today I just made my own custom stamped background.
yoonsunhur-201609-soa-a001I randomly stamped the boughs, leaves, and berries from the Merry and Bright Boughs set on an A2 sized watercolour paper panel with Christmas colours of Distress ink, and then lightly brushed the stamped images using water brush. Once the panel was completely dry, I die cut the sentiment panel from the centre of the panel using the Merry Labels Dies. I then used the MISTI stamping tool to stamp the sentiment and then inked the edges of the panel with Antique Linen Distress ink using mini round blending tool. I wrapped natural twine on the bottom of the sentiment panel three times, added a bow and silver jingle bell. Lastly I mounted two panels as shown to A2 top folded white card base using foam tape.

yoonsunhur-201609-soa-b001For my second card, I used so cheerful Candy Cane Lane Stamp and Die Set. I stamped the sentiment from the Candy Cane Lane set on the centre of the white paper panel with Versafine onyx black ink first, and then randomly stamped the images around the sentiment area with dye inks. Next, I die cut some stamped images from the panel using the Candy Cane Lane Dies, and then inlaid them in place using foam tape. I mounted the stamped panel on A2 top folded red card base using foam tape.

Clearly Besotted Layered Wreath

Hello crafty friends, happy Sunday!
I have two (kind of) CAS Christmas cards to share with you today using the newly released Clearly Besotted Layered Wreath stamp set.
layered-wreath
yoonsunhur-20160911-cbesotted-a001I simply stamped the leaf wreath, berries, and pine cones from the Layered Wreath set on the centre of square watercolour paper panel using some dye inks first: (Leaf wreath) Mowed Lawn, Evergreen Bough Distress inks and Altenew Forest Glades dye ink / (Berries) Altenew Ruby Red dye ink / (Pine cones) Altenew Dark Chocolate dye ink. I then lightly brushed the wreath using water brush – Distress inks react with water. I wrapped red & white bakers twine on the top of the stamped panel three times, added a bow and silver jingle bell. I then decorated the bottom of the panel with gold foil washi tape. Lastly I mounted the panel on white card base using foam tape, and then embellished with a few PPP 4mm metallic gold sequins.

Here is another CAS card with the Layered Wreath stamp set.
yoonsunhur-20160911-cbesotted-b001I stamped the sentiment from the set on the centre of the watercolour paper panel in black pigment ink first, and then randomly stamped tiny Christmas images all around the panel. For the tiny snowflakes, I used the On Thin Ice stamp set.
