yoonsunhur-20161017-altenew-a001For my first card, I created a tone-on-tone floral pattern on the SSS Lipstick Red card base in Altenew Ruby Red dye ink. Next I stamped the layered flower and leaves from the Bold Blossom set on white card stock using some Altenew dye inks:
Flower: Frosty Pink (the base layer), Coral Berry, Ruby Red (the darkest parts)
Leaves: Frayed Leaf, Forest Glades, Evergreen.
And then I fussy cut them out. For the sentiment, I heat embossed it from the Sentiments & Quotes set on black card stock in white, cut the sentiment using scissors. I decorated the bottom of the card with the Altenew Gold Glitter Tape.

yoonsunhur-20161017-altenew-b001For my second card, I repeatedly stamped the flowers & leaves on the Altenew Spicy Yogurt card base in blues and greens – I used a MISTI to get exact placement of my stamped layers! I used Mountain Mist, Volcano Lake, Lagoon dye inks for the green flowers and Sea Glass, Ocean Waves, Dusk for the blue flowers. For the sentiment, I stamped it from the Floral Sprig set in Jet Black dye ink.

yoonsunhur-20161017-altenew-c001For my last card, I heat embossed them on kraft card base in white. And I die cut the word “Thank you” from white card stock using the word dies in the Majestic Bloom die set.

altenew-oct-bloghop-bannerIn October, we are releasing 16 stamp sets for creating Christmas projects and my card today features the Bells and Bows & Holiday Wishes Stamp Sets – Christmas is coming and festivity is already in the air!!
yoonsunhur-20161013-altenew-001I used a lot of Altenew dye inks to stamp the Christmas bells and bows :D I randomly stamped the layered images from the Bells and Bows set on an A2 sized watercolour paper panel using dye inks (I used a MISTI to get exact placement of my stamped layers):
Red bells on the top part: Peach Perfect (the base layer), Ruby Red (outline and dark shadow)
Brown bell: Rocky Shore (base), Mocha (shadow), Espresso (outline)
Blue bell on the right side: Sea Glass (base), Desert Night (outline and dark shadow)
Blue bell on the left side: Ocean Waves (base), Dusk (shadow), Desert Night (outline)
Green bell on the right side: Mango Smoothie (base), Evergreen (outline and dark shadow)
Green bell on the left side: Frayed Leaf (base), Forest Glades (shadow), Evergreen (outline)
Red bell on the bottom: Frosty Pink (base), Crimson (shadow), Grapevine (outline) and I used Dark Chocolate to stamp the darkest part of them.
Green bow: Frayed Leaf (lightest), Forest Glades, Evergreen (darkest)
Red bow: Frosty PinkCoral BerryRuby Red
Yellow bow: Warm Sunshine, Rocky Shore, Mocha
Brown bow: Sand DunesRocky ShoreMocha
Purple bow: Lavender Fields, Deep Iris, Midnight Violet. (Phew!!)
For the sentiment, I heat embossed it from the Holiday Wishes set on red card stock in white, cut it with banner die. I mounted the stamped panel on white card base using double-sided tape first, and then added the sentiment banner on it using foam tape. I decorated the sentiment banner with natural twine bow, silver jingle bell, and some tiny star wood veneers because it’s Christmas!!
yoonsunhur-20161013-altenew-002It’s so colourful, isn’t it? If you’re considering buying some inks, I strongly recommend the Altenew dye inks. The colours are so truly beautiful!!

SSS STAMPtember® Hello Fall

Hello crafty friends, happy STAMPtember!
Today I have two autumn-themed cards to share with you using the SSS STAMPtember® Be-Leaf Me, Time For Wine, and Autumn Greetings stamp sets.

yoonsunhur-20160923-sss-a001For my first card, I used the Be-Leaf Me exclusive STAMPtember set from Altenew for Simon Says Stamp. This set is currently out of stock but you still have a chance to get it!!

I stamped the layered maple leaves from the Be-Leaf Me set on watercolour paper panel using Altenew dye inks, and then added some autumn colours of Distress ink for a more subtle look. For the sentiment, I stamped it from the Autumn Greetings set on the Green Apple card stock in VersaFine Onyx Black, and then trimmed it using the Stitches Circles die.

Altenew – Floral Sprig

Hello crafty friends!
I’m up on the Altenew blog today with my no-line watercolour flower card using the Altenew Floral Sprig Stamp Set. I love to make no-line watercolour card with outlined flower stamps (as you may know :D).
yoonsunhur-20160922-altenew-001To create this card, I 1) Die cut a piece of cold press watercolour paper using the SSS Basic Rectangles dies. 2) Stamped the images from the Floral Sprig set on the left part of the watercolour panel using Sand Dunes dye ink. 3) Coloured the flowers and leaves with Distress markers and Peerless watercolors. 4) Coloured around the flowers with Scattered Straw Distress ink. 5) Stamped the sentiment from the Floral Sprig set with Jet Black dye ink. 6) Decorated the watercoloured panel with Gold Glitter Tape and natural twine. 7) Mounted the panel on an A2 sized white card base using foam tape. 8) Embellished with a few PPP clear sequins.
