SSS Wednesday Challenge: Happy 9th Birthday

Posted on April 4, 2018 by Yoonsun Hur

Hello crafty friends, happy Wednesday!
I am so honoured to be a guest designer over at Simon Says Stamp’s Wednesday Challenge for the month of April!!

Wednesday Challenge team celebrated their 9th birthday on April 1st so I created a watercolour floral birthday card to celebrate their success!!

I die cut fishtail banner from the right part of white paper panel using the SSS Basic Banners die set first – I used it as a shaker window panel.
Next, I stamped the sentiment “Birthday Wishes” from the SSS Big U Words set on white card stock in VersaFine Onyx Black pigment ink – I masked “Big” and “To” using Post-It Note because just needed “Birthday Wishes”. I then trimmed it out using small sized fishtail banner die in the SSS Stitched Banners die set.
I stamped and watercoloured flowers & leaves from the SSS Even More Spring Flowers set, then die cut them with the matching dies.

SSS DieCember 2017 Release

Posted on December 1, 2017 by Yoonsun Hur

Hello crafty friends!
It’s December, the festive mood is in full swing, and we have the perfect Christmas themed dies – Simon Says Stamp DieCember® Release!!

Today I am featuring so beautiful Evergreen Circle die along with other SSS products.
It is a clean and simple Christmas shaker card. I die cut the Evergreen Circle from an A2 sized white paper panel, then adhered the acetate behind the frame using double-sided tape. For the snowy night scene behind the circle window, I ink blended the panel with Chipped Sapphire Distress ink and mini ink blending tool, and then added white ink splatters all over the panel.
I die cut snowflakes from watercolour paper using the SSS Kate Snowflake & Stitched Flakes dies, coloured them lightly with Pumice Stone Distress ink. For the sentiment, I used the SSS Big Scripty Greetings Holiday stamp set.

Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful weekend!!

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

SSS Let Us Rejoice

Posted on October 23, 2017 by Yoonsun Hur

Hello crafty friends, happy Monday!
Today I’m popping in to share with you my watercoloured Christmas cards using Simon Says Stamp Let Us Rejoice Stamp Set I designed.

Here is what I came up with:
I stamped a Christmas flower bouquet from the Let Us Rejoice set on watercolour paper panel using VersaFine Onyx Black pigment ink. I then coloured it with some Distress inks, watercolour pencils, and water brush.
For the sentiment, I stamped it with Walnut Stain Distress ink, and then added the same coloured ink splatters around the stamped images.

For my second card, I also stamped the flower image in black pigment ink, coloured it with Derwent Inktense coloured pencils, and then brushed it with a wet paint brush. I stamped the sentiment over the watercoloured image with VersaFine Onyx Black pigment ink. I trimmed it down using the Stitches Rectangles panel die, and then mounted it on the Fog Gray card base using double-sided tape.
This is the day the LORD has made; let us REJOICE and be glad in it.
– Psalms 118:24 –

SSS STAMPtember: PPP Damask Greetings

Posted on September 20, 2017 by Yoonsun Hur

Hello crafty friends, happy STAMPtember!
Today I want to share with you my damask Christmas card with the SSS & Pretty Pink Posh STAMPtember Damask Greetings stamp set.
These damask designs are simple yet elegant and appropriate for CAS Christmas cards!

To create this card, I 1) Drew grid lines on watercolour paper panel using a pencil. 2) Stamped damask images from the Damask Greetings set with some Distress inks: Mermaid Lagoon, Crushed Olive, Faded Jeans, Peacock Feathers, Evergreen Bough, Wild Honey. 3) Brushed the stamped images lightly using a wet paint brush – Distress inks react with water! 4) Die cut the word “Joy” from metallic white card stock using the Big Joy die five times, and then stacked them up using fine tip glue pen. 5) Mounted the damask background panel on top-folded Fog Gray card base using foam tape, added the sentiment die cut on the card front using foam tape as well.
I tried to create a clean and simple Christmas card. :D
Thank you so much for stopping by. Happy crafting!

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!

SSS STAMPtember® 2017 Blog Hop + Giveaway

Posted on September 2, 2017 by Yoonsun Hur

Hello crafty friends! Happy STAMPtember®!!
It’s September, my favourite time of year, and I am SUPER excited to be a part of the first day of the Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember® Blog Hop today!!

For my first two cards, I used the brand new You Got This stamp set & Damask stencil along with other SSS products.
To create this card, I laid the Damask stencil over the watercolour panel, and then inked over the stencil using some Distress inks and sponge daubers in rainbow order: (from the top left corner) Festive Berries, Scattered Straw, Mowed Lawn, Peacock Feathers, Faded Jeans, and Victorian Velvet. I then freely brushed on the panel with a wet paint brush – Distress inks react with water!! I added water drops and opaque white ink splatters all over the panel. Once the panel was dry, I heat embossed the edges of the panel with gold. For the sentiment, I heat embossed it from the You Got This set on black card stock in white, and then die cut it with the Stitched Banner die. I mounted the background panel on white card base using double-sided tape first, and then added the sentiment banner, vellum butterflies (I used the Butterfly Drift die), gold sequins, clear droplets.
“You are strong and God is stronger, together you are unstoppable.” – I love this sentiment so much!!

For my second card, I created my own damask patterns on soft navy card base using the Damask stencil and white embossing paste. I die cut nearly half of the soft navy panel using the Wavy Scallop Stitches die. I then applied the damask pattern on the soft navy panel using white embossing paste. Once the panel was dry, I added some metallic silver & opaque white ink splatters. For the sentiment, I heat embossed it from the You Got This set on red card stock in white, and then trimmed it down as a small banner. I mounted the background panel on top-folded white card base using foam tape first, and then added the sentiment banner & gold sequins.

For my last card, I used the new Amazing Messages stamp set along with the Tickle Breeze die. I die cut the Tickle Breeze from an A2 sized watercolour panel, and then added rainbow colours using Distress inks and a wet paint brush: Festive Berries, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn, Faded Jeans, and Seedless Preserves. I added water drops. Next, I stamped the image from the Amazing Messages set on white card stock using Onyx Black pigment ink, lightly coloured inside the alphabets with watercoloured pencils, then fussy cut it. For other words, I heat embossed them on black card stock in white. Once the background panel was dry, I mounted it on white card base using foam tape first, and then added all elements as shown to the card front using foam tape as well.
