Hello crafty friends!
Welcome to the Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Coral Sunset Release Blog Hop. If you arrived here from Rachael Shedeed’s blog you are on the right track!

In March, Altenew released a gorgeous Coral Sunset Outline Stamp Set as their Paint-A-Flower.

I started by stamping the Coral Sunset onto watercolour paper panel using black pigment ink.

I coloured the stamped image with Altenew liquid watercolours:
(Flower petals) Crimson, Ruby Red, Purple Wine and Paper Bag
(Leaves) Mixed with Lime and Espresso.
I love olive green from Lime and Espresso. :D

For the bottom of the card, I decorated with Dotted washi tape – it is one of my favourite washi tapes!

SSS Floral Mother’s Day Cards

Posted on March 20, 2021 by Yoonsun Hur

Hello crafty friends! Hope you are having a wonderful weekend.
Today I have a couple of floral Mother’s Day cards with SSS Sweet Friend Set. :D

I started by stamping flowers & leaves from the Sweet Friend set on white cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black dye ink. I then coloured all stamped images with Copic markers. For red flowers, I used R27, R20, R83 and R39 – coloured edge of each petals with R27 first, blended with lighter colours (R20, R83), then lastly added shade with the darkest colour (R39). For pink flowers, I used R22, R81 and R85.

For the sentiment, I heat embossed the “Love You” circle shaped sentiment from the Love and Valentines Word Mix 2 set in gold, then cut it using the Stitched Circle die.

I added tiny butterflies onto flowers – beautiful flowers & butterflies are a perfect match, right?!!

Here is another Mother’s Day card with the Sweet Friend set. I stamped & Copic marker coloured some flowers, then die cut them with the matching dies. For the white leaves, I used the detailed leaf die in the Detailed Rose die set.

For a mini kraft woodgrain envelope, I used the Mini Interactive Envelope die. For the sentiment, I die cut the “Mom” from metallic gold using the Script Mom die.

Flowers, butterflies and lovely script “Mom” sentiment are perfect for a beautiful Mother’s Day card. :D

Thank you so much for stopping by. Happy crafting!

Keep smiling and be blessed. God bless you all.

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!!

Hello crafty friends!
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.
