MFT Wednesday Sketch Challenge Week 1

Posted on August 1, 2018 by Yoonsun Hur

Hello crafty friends, happy Wednesday.
Woo hoo! I am so excited to be guesting with My Favorite Things in August for their Wednesday Sketch Challenge!!

Here is my take on the Sketch 396:
To create the card, I die cut Wonky Stitched Rectangle panel from watercolour paper first, and then made a watercoloured floral patterns with the Bold Blooms stamp set – I stamped flowers & leaves with light coloured dye ink, then coloured all stamped images with watercolors. Next, I stamped cute bunnies & bear from the Snuggle Bunnies set using black dye ink, coloured them with alcohol markers, and then die cut them with the Snuggle Bunnies Die-namics.
For the sentiment, I heat embossed it from the More Essential Sentiments set on Steel Grey cardstock with white embossing powder, and then trimmed it down using long fishtail banner in the Blueprints 27 Die-namics. I mounted all elements on Grout Gray card base as shown in the picture using foam tape.

SSS Happiness

Posted on July 31, 2018 by Yoonsun Hur

Hello crafty friends!
I have a summery “Beleaf” card today with the Plantiful Puns stamp set.

Here is what I came up with:
To create the card, I stamped a mason Jar & succulents from the Plantiful Puns set on watercolour paper using VersaFine Onyx Black, coloured them with Hero Arts Watercolor Wheel, and then fussy cut them out.
For the watercoloured butterfly panel, I die cut A2 sized rectangle panel from watercolour paper using Basic Rectangles die set, trimmed the panel down using Scallop Stitches die set, and then die cut Flickering Butterfly Circle from the centre of the panel. I then lightly watercoloured around the butterflies with green colours. Once the panel was dry, I stamped the sentiment “Happiness” from the Plantiful Puns set on the bottom of the panel in black. Finally I mounted the watercoloured panel on kraft card base using double-sided tape first, and then added all elements on it using foam tape.

Here is a closer look:

Hello crafty friends, happy Monday!

Here is what I came up with:
I started by stamping floral background from the Folk Dance background stamp on watercolour paper using Altenew Sand Dunes dye ink, and then trimmed it down using an A2 sized Basic Rectangle die. Next, I coloured on the solid images with Pinkfresh Studio Liquid Watercolors: Candy Apple, Espresso, Clementine, Emerald City, Key Lime, and Lavender.

SSS Friendly Frolic Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Posted on July 28, 2018 by Yoonsun Hur

Hello crafty friends, happy Saturday!
Welcome to the second day of the Simon Says Stamp Friendly Frolic Release Blog Hop! If you arrived here from the Debby Hughes’s blog you are on the right track.

For my first card, I created my own green leafy background with the Plantiful Puns stamp set – one of my favourites among the new products! I stamped leaves & butterflies from the Plantiful Puns set on the wonky rectangle watercolour paper panel using Altenew Sand Dunes dye ink. I then coloured all stamped images with Derwent inktense coloured pencils and water brush.
I’d planned to make no-line watercoloured panel, but then I added thin black lines over the watercoloured images using Copic 0.05mm black multiliner.

For my second card, I used the Leafy Frame die along with other SSS products. I Die cut the Leafy Frame from white card stock. Next, I heat embossed the sentiment from the Handlettered Encouragement set on an A2 sized watercolour paper panel in white, blended on the panel with Crushed Olive, Mowed Lawn, Mermaid Lagoon, and Faded Jeans Distress Inks, and then freely brushed the panel using a wet paint brush.
Once the sentiment panel was completely dry, I mounted it on white card base using double-sided tape first, and then added the Leafy Frame on it using foam tape. For the butterflies, I used Flickering Butterflies & Butterfly Drift dies.

For my last card for the hop, I used Sketch Lotus Flowers set & Diamond Pattern die. For the lotus flowers, I stamped it on thick white card stock using Memento Tuxedo Black dye ink, and then coloured it with Altenew Artist Markers.
