Posted on March 10, 2021 by Yoonsun Hur

Hello crafty friends! Hope you stay healthy and well.
Welcome to Day 3 of the Pretty Pink Posh March 2021 Product Release Blog Hop. If you arrived here from the super talented Yana Smakula’s blog you are on the right track.

Easter Basket is super-duper adorable. I love it so much! I just wanna put all beautiful flowers in it. :D

For my first card, I made a floral basket shaker card. I started by die cutting Easter Basket from watercolour paper first, and then applied Rusty Hinge & Gathered Twigs Distress inks using blending brushes. I stamped beautiful flowers from the Floral Corners set onto watercolour paper using light coloured dye ink. I then watercoloured all stamped images using Distress markers. I cut them with the Floral Corners coordinating dies.

For my shaker panel, I die cut the Pretty Petals Background from white cardstock first, and then adhered the acetate behind the panel. Next I added the new Party Pop, Sherbet and Unicorn Dreams Clay Confetti to the centre of the lemon yellow card, then cover Pretty Petals Background panel. For the sentiment, I used the Mom Scripts die and the Mom stamp set. This floral basket is perfect for my mother!! :D

Here is one more floral basket card. I put Daffodils in the basket. I stamped and no-line watercoloured Daffodils using Distress markers, then cut with the Daffodils coordinating dies.

For the Basketweave panel, I used the Basketweave stencil. I applied Tea Dye Distress ink. For the sentiment, I used the Fancy Easter Script die – it is so pretty!

Altenew Storybook Fantasy Release Blog Hop

Posted on March 10, 2021 by Yoonsun Hur

Hello crafty friends!
Welcome to the Altenew Storybook Fantasy Release Blog Hop. If you arrived here from Therese Calvird’s blog you are on the right track!

I started by stamping the Fairy Tale Florals on the top-right corner of an A2 sized watercolour panel using Faded Jeans Distress ink. I then freely coloured the stamped image using water brush – I made blue no-line watercoloured flowers mixed with green. Distress inks react to water so, this technique is so fun!

For the sentiment on the bottom left, I stamped it from the Adore You set with Jet Black dye ink.

Take a closer look:

For my second card, I used the Floating Foliage 3D embossing folder along with the Fairy Tale Florals set. I placed an A2 sized watercolour panel inside the Floating Foliage 3D embossing folder and ran it through the die cutting machine first, and then smoothly ink blended onto the panel with pastel-toned Distress inks – I love this pattern!! I heat embossed the Fairy Tale Florals on vellum paper in white, then die cut it with the matching die. I mounted the background panel on white card base using double-sided tape first, and then added the vellum flower die cut & sentiment on the card.

For my foliage background panel, I applied some soft-coloured Distress inks using mini round blending tool first, and then added darker colours onto each leaf using brand new Detailed Blending Brushes. I love these detailed brushes like recently released watercolour brushes!!

Welcome to the Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Antique Rose Release Blog Hop. If you arrived here from Lilith Eeckels’s blog you are on the right track!

This month’s Altenew Craft-A-Flower set features a gorgeous Antique Rose!

I die cut flowers from shades of red, leaves from shades of green using the CAF Antique Rose Layering die set first, and then layered all pieces together using fine tip glue pen just the way the guidebook instructs it.

For the background, I dry embossed onto kraft paper panel using the Mod Squares 3D embossing folder. To blend in with the antique roses, I tore some parts of the background panel.

For my second card, I die cut flowers & leaves from watercolour paper, layered them together, and then watercoloured them with Distress inks.

SSS Hello Beautiful Blog Hop – Day 2

Posted on February 27, 2021 by Yoonsun Hur

Hello crafty friends, happy weekend!
Welcome to Day 2 of the Simon Says Stamp Hello Beautiful Blog Hop. I’m so happy to be a part of this amazing blog hop! If you arrived here from super talented Heather Hoffman’s blog you are on the right track.

As you can see, Simon’s exclusive Hello Beautiful products seem to give me spring as a gift! Beautiful flowers bloomed in my craft room, haha! For my first two floral cards, I used the beautiful Blooming Meadow set along with the Spring Birds and the Bitty Birdhouse set.

I started by stamping pretty birds from the Spring Birds set on white cardstock using Memento Desert Sand dye ink. I then coloured the stamped images with Copic markers, die cut them with the matching dies. Next, I die cut bird house from watercolour paper and then ink blended all the pieces using Rusty Hinge & Gathered Twigs Distress inks.

For the floral wreath, I stamped flowers & leaves from the Blooming Meadow set onto watercolour paper using Memento Desert Sand dye ink first, and then coloured them with several Distress inks. I used Festive Berries & Fired Brick for red flowers, Seedless Preserves for purple flower, Fossilized Amber & Wild Honey for yellow flowers and Mowed Lawn & Crushed Olive for leaves.

For this CAS floral card, I simply stamped flower petals & leaves from the Blooming Meadow set using several SSS dye inks – I used Lipstick Red & Rose Apple dye inks for red flowers, Lavender for purple flower, Clementine for yellow flower and Scuba for leaves. I stamped outlines with Gathered Twigs Distress ink. I then stamped the sentiment in Onyx Black, added tiny butterflies around the flowers.

These spring flowers and birds are so lovely, aren’t they?!!

For my last card for the hop, I used the Lavender Garden set. I stamped flowers & watering can onto watercolour paper using VersaFine Onyx Black, then watercoloured them with Distress inks.

I hope my cards brighten your day!
