Hello crafty friends!
Today I want to share with you my rainbow flower card with the Simon Says Stamp Floral Dot Collage die.
sss-p06
Here is what I came up with:
yoonsunhur-20170131-sss6-01I like to use all the colours of the rainbow for my project!! To create this card, I 1) Die cut a piece of watercolour paper using the Basic Rectangles die. 2) Added Stitched Whirls all over the watercolour paper panel. 3) Die cut the centre of the panel using the Floral Dot Collage die – it’s so pretty die!! 4) Watercoloured around the floral die cut with Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolor and a wet paint brush in rainbow order, added some opaque white ink splatters. 5) Die cut butterflies from a separate watercolour paper using the Butterfly Drift die, roughly watercoloured them with Gansai Tambi Watercolor as well. 6) Die cut the word “Hello” from white card stock using the Handlettered Greetings dies. 7) Mounted all elements as shown to the Fog Gray card base using foam tape.
yoonsunhur-20170131-sss6-02There is everything I love here – the rainbow colours, flowers, butterflies! :D

Hello crafty friends, happy Sunday!!
Today I want to share with you my CAS watercolour card with the SSS Circle Leaves die.
sss-20170129-p05Simon Says Stamp has many elegant and beautiful dies and I love this newly released Circle Leaves in particular.

Here is what I came up with:
yoonsunhur-20170129-sss5-01To start, I die cut the Circle Leaves from the centre of an A2 sized white paper panel. I then made a watercoloured background with Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolor: No.51 (May Green), No.53 (Mid Green), No.50 (Pale Aqua), No.139 (Purple). I heat embossed the sentiment from the Believe stamp set on black card stock in white, and then trimmed it to the small banner. Lastly I mounted all elements as shown to white card base using foam tape.
yoonsunhur-20170129-sss5-03As you may know, I like to make my own patterned background with stamps or dies, like to fill the background with stamped images but this time, I didn’t do it. This white background without images makes the watercoloured leaves more shining and beautiful!

MFT January Release – New Product Launch

Posted on by

Hello crafty friends!
Welcome to the My Favorite Things new product launch! All of the new products we’ve been sharing all week are officially available in the MFT Store now!
NewProductLaunchToday I will be sharing with you a couple of simple watercolour cards that I’ve made using the Well-Connected Alphabet stamp set. With this stamp set, we can make any sentiment we want!
yoonsunhur-201701-mftrc-mpl-a001For my first card, I made the “Praying for you” card. I stamped the sentiment from the Well-Connected Alphabet set on watercolour paper in black pigment ink, and then watercoloured on it with Peerless watercolors – I used Grass Green, Turquoise Blue, and Butterfly Wing Blue. Once the paper was dry, I trimmed it with the Zig Zag Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics. I mounted the panel on the Grout Gray card base using foam tape.
