New Mid Month Free with $60 Die-namics
The mid month Free with $60 die is the Merry Christmas Die-namics. It coordinates with the kit and anyone who orders the kit this month will receive the Free with $60.

Here is what I came up with:
yoonsunhur-20160920-mftcardkit-a001For my first card, I used the emboss resist technique, definitely one of my favourite techniques, with the Simply Snowflakes stamp set. I heat embossed the snowflakes on an A2 sized watercolour paper panel in white, ink blended the panel with Peacock Feathers, Mowed Lawn, Faded Jeans, and Twisted Citron Distress inks using mini round blending tool, then added water using a wet paint brush. For the sentiment, I stamped it from the Snowfall of Blessings set on the bottom of the panel using Black Licorice hybrid ink. Once the panel was completely dry, I mounted it on white card base using double-sided tape.

yoonsunhur-20160920-mftcardkit-b001For my second card, I made a shaker card. To start, I die cut the arch window from the stitched white paper panel using the Stitched Arch STAX Die-namics. I then randomly stamped the snowflakes from the Simply Snowflakes set on the window panel using blue and green colours of hybrid ink: Lush Lagoon, Sour Apple, Blu Raspberry, Limeade, and Blue Yonder. For the sentiment, I used the Peaceful Words Die-namics in the kit.

SSS STAMPtember® Blog Hop

Posted on by

Hello crafty friends! Happy STAMPtember®!!
SSS-STAMPtember-BannerSeptember is, without a doubt, my favourite time of year and I am SUPER excited to be a part of Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember® Blog Hop today!! Are you ready for a month long STAMPtember® celebration?! YAY! Let’s dive right in!!

Today I have three watercolour cards to share with you using the brand new exclusive STAMPtember® products! Woot!!
YoonsunHur-20160903-SSS-A001For my first card, I used the Hydrangea Blooms stamp set I designed. I simply stamped the outlined hydrangea image from the set onto the cold press watercolour paper panel using Victorian Velvet and Seedless Preserves Distress inks first. I then stamped the solid hydrangea image over the stamped area with the same colours, brushed them using a wet paint brush for a more subtle look. For the hydrangea cluster, I used Post-It Notes to mask stamped images. For the leaves, I coloured them with Mowed Lawn and Peeled Paint Distress inks.

For my second card, I used so adorable Christmas Toys stamp set – It reminded me of my childhood Christmas memories!!
YoonsunHur-20160903-SSS-B001To start, I randomly stamped the images from the Christmas Toys set on the Stitches Rectangle watercolour paper panel using Antique Linen Distress ink, and then coloured them with Peerless watercolors and waterbrush. I coloured the background with Antique Linen Distress ink. Once the panel was dry, I gold heat embossed the edges of the panel, and then mounted it on the Schoolhouse Red card base using double-sided tape. For the sentiment, I white heat embossed it on the Schoolhouse Red card stock, added natural twine and silver jingle bell.
YoonsunHur-20160903-SSS-B002
For my last card, I played with the gorgeous Abstract Triangles background stamp. I was inspired by the beautiful fall foliage colours.
YoonsunHur-20160903-SSS-C001 To create the card, I stamped the Abstract Triangles Background on an A2 cold press watercolour paper panel using Antique Linen Distress ink, and then watercoloured the background with Peerless watercolors and waterbrush. For the sentiment, I used two word dies ‘Grathful‘ and ‘Autumn Blessings‘. The ‘Grateful’ set has both script and outline dies so we can create various styles with them!
