Stamp Of The Week – All Occasion Sentiments #3

Hey!

Welcome back to the NEW feature here at Uniko, Stamp Of The Week (SOTW). This week I am dusting off… All Occasion Sentiments #3

AllOccasionSentiment3PP

I’m back this week dusting off another clear stamp set that came back in stock recently and one which is a go to sentiment set for those quick CAS cards!

2016SOTW56

Again todays card is another quick CAS card, with the Easter break over the beans are back at playgroups and now I am full of cold AGAIN 🙁 which has meant not a lot of energy once they are in bed to create 🙁 I’m hoping this one will be short lived!

Anyway, enough of my woes, back card! As you can see I have paired it with the newly released Fun Flowers again.

2016SOTW56a

My colours were based on the new ColourQ challenge colours seen HERE and below. I love the soft Spring like pallet.

A little tip when using the Fun Flowers set it is easier to position and stamp/stack the flowers by starting with the smallest first and working up to the biggest.

Ok, that’s all from me just now. I will be back tomorrow with more to share. Don’t forget that this set is discounted HERE on the website this week.

Thanks for stopping by 🙂

UnikoAprilRelease2

This is such a fun set to do paper piecing with, so that’s what I did 😉 I was also inspired by a new to me challenge (Thanks Lindsey for the heads up about it) called the Sweet Stampin’ Challenge. Their current challenge HERE is paper piecing.

SSChallenge-1

UnikoAprilRelease2a

My next card uses Fun Flowers and was inspired by the new TIME OUT Challenge seen HERE and below. This fortnight it is a Home Sweet Home challenge with an inspiration photo.

Normally an inspiration photo like this would stump me, but with the floral type patterns and colours were perfect to translate onto my card.

UnikoAprilRelease1

The flowers are stamp, coloured, fussy cut out and adhered to the side of another of the MFT Peek a Boo die cut frames. The sentiment is from Paradise Hummingbird which will be back in stock in the next week or so along with some other popular clear stamp sets.

Introducing… Fun Flowers

Hey!

I’m super happy you have stopped by today, as today the Design Team and I are introducing the second of the mini April Release clear stamp sets.

Hopefully you have hopped here from the Uniko Blogspot blog HERE. If not be sure to pop on over to see more from myself and the Design Team using Fun Flowers.

Lets have a look at my card…

Class1

Yep, I’m still on that shaker card making roll! This time I couldn’t resist adding some stamped, coloured and punched out tiny daisies to my shaker mix!

Class1a

 

The flower on the edge of the shaker frame is a layered flower. I stamped the medium daisy, coloured and fussy cut it out. The top most flower is the tiny daisy stamped and then the small scalloped flower stamped, fussy cut and coloured. I layered the flowers together using DST.

Tomorrow I will be sharing a photo of different combinations of how the stamps in this set can be stamped!

That’s all from me just now showcasing this set, I will be back later today with my Stamp Of The Week card using I LOVE Coffee. Until then, be sure to stop by HERE for more inspiration using this set.

Stamp Of The Week – I LOVE Coffee

Hey!

Welcome back to the NEW feature here at Uniko, Stamp Of The Week (SOTW). This week I am dusting off… I LOVE Coffee

ILoveCoffeePP

I’ve had a really productive day today, with the sun out it sure does inspire me to ‘do’ rather than procrastinate! I had a lovely morning running my class at The Paperlane and it was lovely to see some faces I haven’t seen for a while and of course those who come every month 🙂

Anyway, I had this card idea the other night and tonight I made time to make it…

2016SOTW54

I was totally inspired by the new sketch over at CAS(E) this Sketch! HERE and seen below. The I LOVE COFFEE banner in the set was perfect to create the trio of rectangular elements shown in the sketch.

CTS_167

I still wanted to use and add some of the other stamps contained in the set on my card but keep them subtle, so I randomly stamped the coffee cup and beans onto a Soft Stone CS layer using VersaMark Dazzle Champagne ink. This panel is mounted onto a Smokey Slate card base and the trio of sentiments adhered using foam adhesive.

2016SOTW54a

Short & sweet from me tonight, I have still a few jobs to cross off the list in preparation for the mini April Release! If you didn’t catch my posts HERE and HERE the Uniko Design Team and I have introduced the first product being released today.

I will be back tomorrow with more to share. Don’t forget that this set is discounted HERE on the website this week.

Thanks for stopping by 🙂

Introducing… Celebrate With Cake

Hey!

I’m super happy you have stopped by today, as today the Design Team and I are introducing the first of the mini April Release clear stamp sets.

Hopefully you have hopped here from the Uniko Blogspot blog HERE. If not be sure to pop on over to see more from myself and the Design Team using Celebrate With Cake.

Lets have a look at my card…

Class6

 

My starting point for my card was when I saw the current Color Throwdown challenge colours seen HERE and below. I thought they could challenge me (which they did) and also make a cheery celebration card.

swatch387

 

My tag card is pretty simple, I stamped the outline cupcake case in VersaMagic Red Magic ink onto the tag and then the solid cupcake top in VersaMagic Aquatic Splash onto a smaller separate piece of white CS and fussy cut it out. I also added the star sprinkles to the cupcake top using SU! Pumpkin Pie ink.

Class6a

I embellished the tag with some Papertrey Ink Harvest Gold satin ribbon, SU! Aqua Mist Bakers Twine, the sentiment from the set and a trio of tiny rhinestones.

That’s all from me just now showcasing this set, I will be back later today with my Stamp Of The Week card using I LOVE Coffee. Until then, be sure to stop by HERE for more inspiration using this set.

Thanks for stopping by.

Stamp Of The Week – I LOVE Coffee

Hey!

Welcome back to the NEW feature here at Uniko, Stamp Of The Week (SOTW). This week I am dusting off… I LOVE Coffee

ILoveCoffeePP

With my family leaving today to enjoy a couple of nights by the seaside and the beans going to their grandparents for the day I was hoping for a full day of crafting. I did a few cards, but my creative mojo was lacking energy today and I didn’t get as much done as planned.

I did get to make todays SOTW card…

2016SOTW53

The result something a little out of my normal CAS comfort zone, a little ‘busier’ than normal, but the bright cheery ColourQ challenge colours seen HERE and below were perfect for the rainy and gloomy day we have had.

I treated myself to a new Reverse Confetti die and have been itching to use it since it arrived on Tuesday, hence its use on my card 😉

2016SOTW53A

Short & sweet from me tonight, so that’s all from me today and using this set, but I will be back tomorrow with more to share. Don’t forget that this set is discounted HERE on the website this week.

Stamp Of The Week – Pure Florals: Cosmos

Hey!

Welcome back to the NEW feature here at Uniko, Stamp Of The Week (SOTW). This week I am dusting off… Pure Florals: Cosmos

PFCosmosPP

This is the set the Design Team and I have revisited this month with a blog hop & giveaway HERE, so with it already out and getting some inky love and attention I thought I would give it some more this week.

This is my last card this week using the set, I seem to have lost a couple of days since the restocks arrived and I have been busy preparing the mini April Release too 😉 Anyway, how about my card…

2016SOTW44

I decided to play along with a couple of challenges for this card. First up the TIME OUT Challenges one HERE, which is to CASE (with your own twist) this beautiful card by Marjan seen below…

DCL#230-1

I especially like the die cut window Marjan created, but I decided to add my own twist and reverse the window, adding foam adhesive to the die cut square instead of the larger stamped panel.

2016SOTW44aAlong with the die cut detail I was inspired by the trio of colours Marjan used too and replicated those on my card. I added some polka dots too, which is perfect for this weeks “Less Is More” challenge HERE.

Less-Is-More-Header

Ok, that’s all from me tonight, I’m going to spend a little time with the hubby tonight, we are currently watching the second season of Daredevil and loving it!

I hope you all had a lovely Easter Sunday and thanks for stopping by today, see you tomorrow with a new Stamp Of The Week and don’t forget that this set is discounted in store HERE only until tomorrow!

The second challenge was for colours and I LOVE the colours they have chosen at the Color Throwdown HERE and seen below this week, Teal, Aqua and Gold – YUM!

2016SOTW43a

I decided to Gold heat emboss the Cosmos flowers on my trio of squares and after I added the aqua colour to the petals using a Copic marker, quick and simple flat colouring.

This is the set the Design Team and I have revisited this month with a blog hop & giveaway HERE, so with it already out and getting some inky love and attention I thought I would give it some more this week!

I seem to be having many a day where everything I want to do either takes me twice as long as originally planned or turns out to be a waste of time!

2016SOTW42

My card today took me forever to make, the fussy cutting which I normally enjoy seemed to take me forever to do and then I needed some designer paper which I rarely use and had to search high and low for some that suited my card and inspiration photo I was following!

I was inspired by a new to me challenge called Inspired by All the Little Things seen HERE and below. Isn’t that photo inspiring and pretty.

As you can see I kept my card pretty CAS and flat, adhering the flowers and leaves with DST. I added a sentiment from Simply Said and some Wink Of Stella to the flowers for some subtle sparkle.

2016SOTW42a

That’s all I have today, struggling with the creativity tonight 🙁 Anyway, there is still time to join in and comment along the hop HERE to be in the chance of winning the featured clear stamp set. Plus there is also the Spring Coffee Lovers Blog Hop in progress and details and giveaway info HERE.
