altenew-sept2016-bannerWe are releasing 15 dies, 12 new inks, 36 re-inkers, two glitter tapes in September and my cards feature the Everything Will Be Okay die and some new dye inks.

yoonsunhur-20160919-altenew-a001For my first card, I used the Everything Will Be Okay die as my main supply. I die cut it from white card stock, and then overlaid it with gold heat embossing. For my background panel, I stamped the flowers and leaves from the Brush Art Floral set on an A2 sized white paper panel with some new dye inks: (Flowers) Puffy Heart, Purple Wine, and Cosmic Berry / (Leaves) Volcano Lake and Lagoon. I added some metallic gold ink splatters. Lastly, I mounted all elements as shown to A2 top folded white card base using double-sided tape.

yoonsunhur-20160919-altenew-b001For my second card, I made a one-layer CAS card with the teal colours!! I randomly stamped the flowers from the Peony Bouquet set on an A2 sized white paper panel using Mountain Mist and Lagoon (darker) dye inks. I then stamped some tiny dots from the Striped Florals set between flower images using Emerald dye ink. For the sentiment, I used the Beautiful Quotes stamp set.

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.
YoonsunHur-20160903-SSS-A002
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!
YoonsunHur-20160903-SSS-C002Your next stop on the hop is super talented Wanda Guess. We hope to inspire you with some beautiful card projects as you hop along to each of the designer’s blogs!

Hello crafty friends, welcome to the Poppystamps & Birch Press Blog Hop! You should have arrived from Sue McRae!
PoppyBirchPressBlogHop-BannerBirch Press Design has released so awesome A2 sized stackable cover plate dies and my card today features the Circa Layer die set!
YoonsunHur-20160823-Poppystamps001With the Circa Layer die set, I made a fun and playful animals card. First, I die cut all three circle cover plate from shades of blue card stock using the Circa Layer dies. I then cut kitties, squirrels, and tiny butterflies out of white card stock, and then die cut stitched leaves from green card stock using the Fall Leaf Collage die. I adhered all elements as shown to the picture on the light blue cover plate panel using double-sided tape, and then mounted them on an A2 top folded navy blue card base using foam tape. To finish it off, I embellished with a few clear sequins.
YoonsunHur-20160823-Poppystamps002For the sentiment, I used the Poppystamps Wintertime Bears stamp set.

Pretty Pink Posh August Release Blog Hop

Posted on by

Hello crafty friends, happy Thursday!!
Welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh August Product Release Blog Hop! You should have arrived from amazingly talented Joni Andaya.
PPP-August-Bloghop-BannerToday I want to share my cards with the adorable new stamp sets along with other new Pretty Pink Posh goodies. PPP sequins always enhance my projects and the August release is no exception!!

YoonsunHur-20160811-PPP-A001For my first card, I used the new Camping Friends Stamp Set & Coordinating Dies. For the starry night background, I white heat embossed the moon and tiny stars from the set onto watercolour paper panel, then ink blended on it with Mermaid Lagoon, Faded Jeans, and Seedless Preserves Distress inks using mini ink blending tool. I then added Perfect Pearls Mist and opaque white ink splatters. For the ground, I ink blended with Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain Distress inks. Next, I stamped the images from the set on a separate watercolour paper in VersaFine Onyx Black, watercoloured them with Distress markers, and then die cut them with the coordinating dies. Once the panel was completely dry, I mounted it on an A2 sized white card base using double-sided tape first, and then added all elements as shown to the card front using foam tape. I embellished with a few 3mm PPP clear sequins.
YoonsunHur-20160811-PPP-A002Camping under the stars, that’s a very exciting thing to think about!!

YoonsunHur-20160811-PPP-B001For my second card, I used the new Blissful Butterflies Stamp Set & Stitched Hexagons Dies. I love to create something beautiful and LOVE butterflies!! First, I randomly stamped the butterflies from the Blissful Butterflies set on watercolour paper panel using VersaMark Embossing ink, heat embossed them in white. I then watercoloured over the heat embossed images with Peerless watercolors and a wet flat brush. I added white ink splatters. Next, I die cut the Stitched Hexagon from heavy white card stock, stamped the sentiment on it in black ink. I stamped the butterflies on a separate white card stock in black, then fussy cut them. Once the watercoloured panel was dry, I mounted it on an A2 sized white card base using double-sided tape first, and then added all elements as shown to the card front using foam tape. I embellished with a few PPP clear sequins.
YoonsunHur-20160811-PPP-B002
YoonsunHur-20160811-PPP-C001For my last card, I used the new Fox Friends Stamp Set & Coordinating Dies – Those foxes are so darling!! I simply stamped all three foxes from the set on watercolour paper in VersaFine Onyx Black, coloured them with Distress markers, and then die cut them with the coordinating dies. I stacked up foxes (as shown in the picture) using foam tape, and then added black sentiment, I used the Camping Friends stamp set, banner over them.
YoonsunHur-20160811-PPP-C002To finish it off, I embellished with a few Pewter Sequins (4mm, 6mm).

Welcome to the Altenew July Product Release Blog Hop! You should have arrived from so amazing Lydia Evans!!
Altenew-July2016-ReleaseBlogHop-Banner
Today I want to share a couple of watercolour cards that I’ve made using the Celebrations stamp set.
YoonsunHur-20160729-Altenew-A01For my first card, I used the masking stamping technique to make stacks of rainbow macaroons!! I stamped the macaroons from the Celebrations set on watercolour paper panel in VersaFine Pigment Ink Onyx Black, and then watercoloured them with Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolor. I mounted the panel on an A2 sized white card base using double-sided tape first, and then added the sentiment banner on the card front using dimensional foam tape.

YoonsunHur-20160729-Altenew-B01For my second card, I used the rose image from the Celebrations stamp set. I simply stamped the rose along with the sentiment on watercolour paper panel in black pigment ink, then coloured the roses with Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolor. I added black ink splatters. Once the panel was dry, I mounted it on kraft card base using dimensional foam tape.
