My second card with the set:
YoonsunHur-20150401-NeatandTangled04For this card, I used matching die with the stamp set. The size of the Dala Horse die is a perfect as a focal point in card.

To create the card:
1)I drew the pencil line on the watercolour paper a bit bigger than actual size of the largest Dala horse die and then blended with Distress ink Peacock Feathers, Stormy Sky using mini blending tool. 2)Once completely dry, I randomly stamped mini blossoms using VersaMark Embossing ink and white heat embossed. 3)I spritzed a bit of fresh water on the stamped image for getting watercolour stains, dry it using heat tool and then die cut the Dala horse from the stamped paper. 4)For the background panel, I stamped mini blossoms on the white cardstock with grey pigment ink here and there and watercoloured in the middle of the stamped panel with Distress ink Mustard Seed using paint brush. 5)Using vellum paper, I covered whole area of the stamped background and machine stitched on the top, mounted it to the yellow cardstock. 6)To finish it off, I positioned the Dala horse, sentiment banner on the custom background panel, adhered them in place using dimensional foam tape, added mixed clear sequins.

SSS Hop To It – Slumber Party

Hello crafty friends! Today I made no-line watercolour card -recently my most favourite technique- with Simon Says Stamps Hop To It Slumber Party Stamp Set.

Here is what I came up with:
YoonsunHur-20150331-SSSHopToIt01Isn’t this girl so adorable? This cute girl alone is worth adding to my stamp collection :D

To create the card:
1)I die cut stitched rectangle panel from white cardstock using SSS Stitches Rectangles Die. 2)I die cut several elements -moon, stars, popcorn bowl, slipper, etc- from stamping mask paper using the dies that coordinate with a Slumber Party stamp set. I positioned the mask die cuts on the panel, adhered them in place. I then blended on the panel with distress inks –Picked Raspberry, Spun Sugar– using blending tool, spritzed using Tsukineko Shimmer Spritz Sparkle. 3)I stamped the girl on the watercolour paper using Distress ink Antique Linen -Gearing up for no-line watercolouring!! 4)I coloured the girl with Distress markershairGathered TwigsVintage Photo / face: Tattered Rose / pajama: Barn Door, Worn Lipstick, Mustard Seed, Aged Mahogany / bear: Brushed Corduroy / slipper: Salty Ocean, Chipped Sapphire. 5)Inked panel have dried up, I removed the masks and stamped coordinating images in Vintage Sepia pigment ink in each space on the panel. 6)For the sentiment: I stamped it on the black cardstock using VersaMark Embossing ink and white heat embossed, fussy cute it. 7)Mixed clear sequins were the finishing touches.

For the background, I was inspired by Dawn of WPlus9 at Online Card Class Stretch Your Dies. (If you want to see my another cards with this technique click HERE!)
