SSS Handwritten Floral Greetings

Hello crafty friends, TGIF!
Today I want to share with you a couple of my leaf wreath card using so beautiful Simon Says Stamp Handwritten Floral Greetings stamp set.
YoonsunHur-20160715-SSS-BothSSS-HandwrittenFloralGreetingsFor today’s cards, I made my own leaf wreath with the outlined leaf stamp in the set.
SSS-20160715-P01To start, I placed a circle die on an A2 sized watercolour paper panel, then traced a circle very lightly with a pencil (or mechanical pencil).
SSS-20160715-P02Next, I stamped the leaf from the Handwritten Floral Greetings set along the circle line using Antique Linen Distress ink.
SSS-20160715-P03I then basically coloured them with Distress markers and water brush.
YoonsunHur-20160715-SSS-A001I added more colours and more water! Because I wanted to have a more subtle watercolour effect!! I ripped out the bottom of the panel, inked the edges of it with Crushed Olive Distress ink using mini ink blending tool. I stamped the sentiment in VersaFine Onyx Black. Finally, I mounted it on an A2 top folded kraft card base using dimensional foam tape.

YoonsunHur-20160715-SSS-B001Here is another card with the same design on kraft base. I stamped the leaf along the circle line using white pigment ink first, and then coloured them with white acrylic paint using a paint brush (without water). Once the panel was dry, I stamped the same leaf onto the same place in black pigment ink again, then added Perfect Pearls Mist and opaque white ink splatters. Like my first card, I ripped out the top & bottom of the panel, inked the edges of it with Vintage Photo Distress ink. I mounted the panel on kraft card base using dimensional foam tape, then embellished with a few 4mm PPP gold sequins – I love white on kraft!!

SSS Summer fun in the sun

Hello crafty friends, I hope you are having a great weekend!
Today I’m just popping in to share my fun watercolour card with the Simon Says Stamp summer themed stamp sets.
YoonsunHur-20160710-SSS-001For today’s card, I used the Summertime Animals & Warm Christmas Wishes stamp sets together. First, I stamped the palm trees from the Warm Christmas Wishes set, pineapples from the Summertime Animals set on an A2 sized watercolour paper panel in VersaFine Pigment Ink Onyx Black using the Mini MISTI stamping tool. I then stamped the sentiments & tiny images from the Uplifting Thoughts set on the centre of the panel in VersaFine Onyx Black as well. Next, I coloured the images with Derwent inktense colored pencils – I coloured with the pencils first, and then dabbed them with the waterbrush. For the background, I coloured around the sentiment areas with Distress inks using a wet paint brush: Squeezed LemonadeMowed Lawn, and Peacock Feathers. Once the panel was dry, I mounted it on white card base using double-sided tape first, and then added the stamped sun images using dimensional foam tape.

SSS Fun tropical pineapple

Hello crafty friends!
Today I am sharing with you my fun tropical pineapple card with the new SSS Summertime Animals stamp set.
YoonsunHur-20160630-SSS-001Have you ever seen any pink or blue pineapple in real life? Hmm, I haven’t seen but it’s possible to make in our creative imagination, don’t you think? :D
SSS-SummertimeAnimalsFor my card today, I used only the pineapple image in the Summertime Animals stamp set. First, I stamped the pineapples on watercolour paper using VersaFine Smokey Grey, watercoloured them with Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolor, and then die cut them with the matching die. Next, I die cut a separate watercolour paper using the A2 sized rectangle die in the SSS Basic Rectangle die set. And then roughly watercoloured the background with Kuretake Gansai Tambi Watercolor using a wet flat brush. Once the panel was dry, I mounted the watercoloured panel on an A2 sized white card base using double-sided tape first, and then added the pineapple die cuts on it using dimensional foam tape. Finally I mounted the sentiment banner on top of the card using foam tape, then added some Glossy Accents water droplets.
YoonsunHur-20160630-SSS-002That’s it for today. Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a great day!!

SSS Tropical Leaves

Hello crafty friends, blessed Sunday!
Today I am just popping in to share my cards with the new SSS Tropical Leaves stamp set.
YoonsunHur-20160625-SSS-BothSSS-Tropical-LeavesThis set is loved by so many people! And of course it’s one of my faves among the new SSS Among the Stars release!!
YoonsunHur-20160625-SSS-A001For my first card, I used the emboss resist technique. First, I stamped the leaves from the Tropical Leaves set on the bottom part of an A2 sized watercolour paper panel using VersaMark embossing ink, and then heat embossed them with Hero Arts white embossing powder. Next, I ink blended on the heat embossed panel with Faded Jeans, Mermaid Lagoon, Evergreen Bough, Mowed Lawn, Cracked Pistachio, Twisted Citron, and Wild Honey Distress inks using mini ink blending tool. I spritzed the ink blended panel with water using a Mini Mister. Once the panel was dry, I added tiny dots using Uni-Ball Pen Gel White. For the sentiment, I used the Uplifting Thoughts stamp set. Finally, I mounted the panel on an A2 sized white card base using dimensional foam tape, then embellished with a few PPP clear sequins.

YoonsunHur-20160625-SSS-B001Here is another card with the Tropical Leaves stamp set. First, I die cut a piece of watercolour paper using the SSS Stitches Rectangles die. I then randomly stamped the leaves on it with several blue & green colours of SSS hybrid and dye inks. I coloured the rest areas with Pumice Stone Distress ink using Tim Holtz Detailer Waterbrush. Once the panel was dry, I stamped the sentiment from the Uplifting Thoughts set on the centre of the panel using VersaFine Onyx Black, added some black ink splatters. I mounted it on an A2 sized white card base using dimensional foam tape, then embellished with a few PPP clear sequins.
