Paper Crafts Scrapbooking Magazine Blog Hop

pcsbadge1Hello folks, many of you already knew that Paper Crafts & Scrapbooking Magazine is shutting its doors… I was deeply saddened when I heard this news… because PC&S gave me lots of awesome crafty friends through Gallery Idol and helped me open my eyes into the world of craft. While I am still sad, I believe it will turn into a brighter future for everyone :D

Taheerah and Veronica held the fabulous Blog Hop to thank PC&S for everything they’ve done for us. If you’re hopping along you should have reached me from Shelly Kurth and the next stop on the hop is Maureen Plut.

Honestly, I was a bit hesitant when deciding to participate in this blog hop. I’ve never joined CHA and don’t have much experience in this industry. I thought I was unworthy in taking part of this blog hop. Hmm… I just prayed for the PC&S magazine team. However, suddenly one bible script came to my mind. 20141203-01-01Peace I leave with you; My peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. (John 14:27)

OMGoodness… I realised how much love and strength God wants to pour out to them. So, I decided to join this blog hop to deliver God’s love to PC&S team.

Beautiful Brushstrokes

Hello folks, happy Monday in Australia!!

Today I want to show you another – my endless love – watercolour card with Papertrey ink Beautiful Brushstrokes stamp set :D

Here is what I came up with:
20140728-01I really.. really.. really love this stamp set. Just GORGEOUS!! There are no other words that I need to explain about it! (Many of you already know)

For this, I inked on the flower and leaf stamps using distress inks and spritzed with water at first. I then stamped onto the watercolour paper. After that, I spritzed Mr. Huey’s Color Mists Desert on the white space and affixed black & white swiss dot washi tape for finishing touch.

You are my STAR!

Hello folks,
Today, I want to show you my two different version with one stamp card :D

Let me show you the first card here:
20140711-01I chose absolutely gorgeous Hero Arts Constellation Background stamp for this card. It is really beautiful!!

I heat embossed on the white cardstock using Ranger Embossing Powder Seaform White at first and then sponged onto it using several colour Distress inks. I then spritzed fresh water onto the background paper for making watercolour look. For sentiment, I used On Target Stamp by Mama Elephant and added some gold shape sequins as an embellishment. OH! finally I stamped Korean letters in black between constellation. I have Korean letter – Korean is my first language –  stamp sets and they are so adorable! Combining the letters in this card means ‘I LOVE YOU’ :D

Here is a detailed view:

And…. one more card here:
20140711-03It is kind of a masculine card although there is a glitter butterfly :D

I heat embossed on the white paper in gold and silver. For sentiment I chose Simply Fabulous Sayings MFT Stamps and then heat embossed on the vellum paper in black. I added a glitter butterfly and several enamel dots for finishing touch.

Watercoloring an Embossed Image

Hello folks,
yesterday, I made another watercolour card. I tried to emulate the Jennifer McGuire’s tutorial – Shimmer Watercolouring! LOL!!

Here it is:
20140515-01
for this card, I chose ‘Roses are Red stamp by Flourishes’ however, hmm.. it wasn’t perfectly fit to shimmer watercolouring… it is a bit intricate (just in my opinion) I need to have more flower stamps :D
Anyway, I chose it and love it!!

Here is a detailed view:
