SSS Your Light

Hello crafty friends, happy weekend!
Today I have a couple of summery cards with the Your Light stamp set and the Clouds For Days stencil.
(Left: Your Light Stamp Set / Right: Clouds For Days Stencil)

I made two similar cards but one is a summer day and another is a summer night card. :D

With the Clouds For Days stencil, I used Mermaid Lagoon Distress ink & Picket Fence Studios Life Changing Blender Brush.
And this card, I used Faded Jeans Distress ink.

I die cut a stitched circle panel from watercolour paper using the Stitched Circles die first, and then stamped yacht, clouds, seagulls and sentiment from the Your Light set on it using VersaFine Onyx Black. I then watercoloured them with Hero Arts Watercolor Wheel.
For a summer night card, I stamped lighthouse, clouds, seagulls and sentiment from the Your Light set on it using VersaFine Onyx Black, then also watercoloured them.
I love these two encouragement sentiments so much!!

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a fabulous day!!

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

SSS You are one of a Kind!

Hello crafty friends!
I’m popping in to share with you my elegant floral cards with beautiful Simon Says Stamp Filigree Floral dies: Filigree Wreath & Filigree Message Circle.

For my first circle floral panel, I used the Filigree Message Circle and the Stitched Circles Panel dies.

I die cut the Filigree Message Circle from thick (300gsm) white card stock first, and then trimmed it using the Stitched Circle Panel die – I inked up with Antique Linen Distress ink.
I stamped the Pretty Peonies Background on a 4.25″ x 5.5″ white paper panel using Memento Tuxedo Black dye ink, then coloured the stamped images with Altenew Artist Markers – red & green is my most favourite colour combo to flowers. :D
For the sentiment, I heat embossed it from the Tiny Words set on Lipstick Red card stock in white first, and then trimmed it as a small banner using the Nested Banners die set.

For my second card, I used the Filigree Wreath die along with the Pretty Peonies Background stamp.
I die cut stitched square panel from thick (300gsm) white card stock using the Stitched Squares die set first, die cut the Filigree Wreath from the panel, and then cut the centre of the Filigree Wreath Panel with the small sized Stitched Circle die.
For this floral background, I stamped the Pretty Peonies Background on a 4.25″ x 5.5″ white paper panel using Memento Tuxedo Black dye ink, then coloured the background, not flowers & leaves, with blue alcohol markers.

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a fabulous day!!

SSS Wildflowers

Hello crafty friends, happy Tuesday!
Today I want to share with you a couple of my watercoloured floral cards with Wildflowers & Say It All Friend Stamp Sets.
(Left: Wildflowers / Right: Say It All Friend)

For my first card, I used several Distress inks as watercolours. I applied some Distress inks to one of flower silhouette image in the Wildflowers Set first, and then stamped it on the bottom of a 4.25″ x 5.5″ rectangle watercolour paper panel – I used Worn Lipstick, Rusty Hinge, Fossilized Amber, Crushed Olive, Peacock Feathers, Faded Jeans Distress inks.
Next, I brushed to all stamped images with a wet paint brush – Distress inks react with water! I added ink splatters. For the sentiment, I used the Say It All Friend Stamp Set.

Here is another watercoloured floral card with the Wildflowers Stamp Set. I heat embossed flower silhouette on the bottom of watercolour paper panel in white first, and then ink blended on the panel with Peacock Feathers, Crushed Olive, Mowed Lawn, Fossilized Amber, Mermaid Lagoon, Faded Jeans and Seedless Preserves Distress inks.
I freely brushed all over the panel with a wet paint brush, added opaque white ink splatters as well.
Distress ink is definitely one of great watercolour mediums!!

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a fabulous day!!

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

Hello crafty friends, happy weekend!
I’m so happy to be a part of the Simon Says Stamp Rest and Refresh Release Blog Hop! If you arrived here from Nichol Spohr’s blog you are on the right track!

For my first card, I used the Bee Happy Stamp Set & the Hexagon Element Die. These two products are so cute!!
I started by stamping adorable bees from the Bee Happy Set on watercolour paper using VersaFine Onyx Black. I coloured them with Hero Arts Watercolor Wheel, and then fussy cut them.
I die cut the Hexagon Element from white card stock five times, stacked them up using fine tip glue pen – I made a thick hexagon die cut. I mounted the hexagon die cut on the centre of kraft card base using fine tip glue pen first, and then added watercoloured bees, sentiment banners, and gold sequins.

For my second card, I used the Summa Time Stamp Set along with the Good Vibes Dies.
I die cut the Wonky Rectangle Panel from watercolour paper first, and then randomly stamped cute elements from the Summa Time Set using VersaFine Onyx Black.
I freely watercoloured the stamped panel with Hero Arts Watercolor Wheel – it’s one of my favourite watercolouring techniques. Once the panel was dry, I mounted it on Green Apple card base.

SSS Rest and Refresh Release

Happy Thursday, crafty friends! Today I’m sharing my watercolour card using brand new Simon Says Stamp Rest and Refresh release products!!

My card today, I’m featuring Round and Round Background Stamp and Anchor Die.
I started by die cutting Wonky Rectangle Panel from watercolour paper. I then applied anti static powder to this watercolour panel, heat embossed the Round and Round Background on the panel with white embossing powder.
I watercoloured the stamped background with Peerless Watercolors. Next, I die cut the Anchor from white card stock, the Stitched Banner from vellum paper, and then I tied the Stitched Banner with a natural hemp cord. For the sentiment, I heat embossed it from the Tiny Words Encouragement Set on Soft Navy card stock in white, then trimmed it using small sized fishtail banner in the Nested Banners Die Set.
Once the background panel was dry, I mounted it on white card base using double-sided tape first, and then added all elements using foam tape. I embellished with a few Marina Sequins.

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a great day!

Keep smiling and be blessed. God bless you all.
