December 2023 NEW Release, Brand Ambassador Blog Hop & GIVEAWAY!
Hello, Happy Friday AND Happy New Release Day!
I hope you have enjoyed the introductions this week and I’m super excited you have stopped by so I share these new products with you. They are NOW available to purchase HERE on the website.
Hopefully you have hopped on over from HERE where I have introduced the new products and you will also find the links to the Brand Ambassador blogs.
Here’s what I came up with for today…
First up I decided to ink up Background Blocks Perspective and pair it with Mid Century Modern Florals. I started by stamping my favourite combo of stamps to create the flower, which I fussy cut out.
I then stamped the block which I coloured with two shades of orange and grey. I originally wasn’t going to fussy cut the block out, but I smudged my stamping and so had no choice but to cut it out and adhere it using foam tape!
My sentiment choice is from Bauhaus Blocks and I finished the card with enamel dots.
Keeping with the floral theme, I added some Beautiful Blooms II flowers to the Background Blocks Layered Stripes.
I started by stamping the block in Dove ink across the top of the card. You might be able to guess that I have hidden the join in my stamping with the beautiful blooms! My sentiment is from Simply Said Blocks II.
For my last card today I inked up the Stencil – Ink & Flip Snowflake. This card didn’t turn out how I intended either, sometimes it just goes that way after mishaps!
I started out being inspired by The Pantone Colour for 2024, Peach Fuzz. So I inked up the snowflake with Grapefruit and then Sorbet.
I then stamped the sentiment from Snowflake Serenade, which I accidentally dropped on the top of my card. Hence why the most of my snowflakes and embellishments are at the top of the card to cover my mishap!
I hope you have enjoyed this last release of 2023 😊
Now I have announced all the happy news, I have some not so happy news 😞
At the end of last month my manufacturer informed me of an increase in prices (again) as of January 2024. I have resisted increasing my product prices for the last couple of manufacture increases and it has been quite a number of years since I last increased them.
I know the cost of living is affecting so many people and I hate to do this. But to keep Uniko going & bringing fresh, unique designs I unfortunately have little choice.
As of Monday 8th January 2024, product prices will be as follows…
StampsSmall (A7) – £6.50Medium (A6) – £11.50Large (A5) – £16 (Price Remains Unchanged)
Stencils – £4.50
I thank you all for your custom & support here at Uniko.

Fabulous last release! Love so much the new Background Block Perspective stamp! Your fussy cutting adds also more dimension to the perspective and does a very creative match with the flower 🙂
The Background Blocks Layered Stripes is really SO versatile, love it! Fabulous clean and elegant design with the beautiful blooms!
The snowflake stencil looks so pretty with the peach tones!
Awesome new designs! Love the beautiful cards you created! Great stamp designs, and the stencil looks fabulous (and fun to use!).
The cards all look great. The complete release is very fresh and stylish. Thanks for showing.
Bev, you’ve created a delightful trio of cards to showcase your new release. The Background Blocks Perspective is so cool, especially paired with your modern floral. And the snowflake…soooo pretty! Wonderful inspiration!
