To kick this FABulous hop off I’ve created my own Winter themed coffee card…

With the recent mini stencil release, I couldn’t resist inking up the Stencil – Large Snowflake Two. I absolutely love creating this shadow effect with this stencil, so that’s what I did. I used Concord & 9th Sea Glass and Oceanside inks to do this.

I then masked off both the snowflakes to add the glittered Scattered Polka Dots. Once dry, I then adhered this to an Oceanside card base.

To finish the card I stamped the coffee cup and little Uniko flower from I LOVE Coffee and fussy cut them out. The sentiment is from Christmas Sentiments.

This is always such a fun event in blog land and I look forward to seeing all the wonderful creations.

Before I go I have one more GIVEAWAY for a lucky commenter on this post! The lucky person will WIN a Uniko clear stamp/stencil gift worth a minimum of £20. Simply leave a comment on this post by 6am (PST) 18th November 2022, to be in the chance of winning!

2019 National Coffee Day Blog Hop & GIVEAWAY!

*Editied to Add the Uniko Giveaway Winner….

Cindy Marshall

Oh I love all the cards. Everyone did an amazing job! I love coffee and I love fall. Thank you for being a sponsor and Happy National Coffee Day!

Congratulations Cindy!

 

Welcome to the 2019 National Coffee Day Blog Hop!

I am delighted to know such wonderful and inviting friends in the industry and to be a part of so many fun events that take place. Amy Tsuruta is one of the co-founders of the Coffee Loving Cardmakers blog and organises many fun blog hops throughout the year and invited Uniko to be part of this fun event.

If you’ve followed or been part of the previous Spring/Summer or Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hops, todays hop is a little different and will run as a traditional hop rather than a linkup.

So be sure to head on over HERE to the beginning of the hop 🙂

Today some of the Uniko Brand Ambassadors have joined me in sharing some coffee themed makes and so we have a mini Uniko hop contained inside this larger hop – FUN right? And as always I have a little prize for ONE lucky commenter who leaves a comment on any of the participating Uniko Brand Ambassador blog posts links and more details at the end!

First I have a card to share with you…

NCDhop1

Autumn is in full swing now here in the UK and the colours totally inspired my card today. I chose 5 Altenew ink colour, Espresso, Mocha, Autumn Blaze, Orange and Sun Kissed to ink up the Background Blocks Nautical Stripes stamp. To me this stamp represents a warm cozy sweater!

NCDhop1b

I then stamped some of the images from Uniko’s I LOVE Coffee clear stamp set and arranged them on the card. Having the stamped background block makes for a really quick card 😉

NCDhop1a

And here’s some inspiration from some of the Uniko Brand Ambassadors, be sure to hop over to their blogs and comment for your chance to win the Uniko prize…

The weather here in the UK is cold and we have snow forecast for Sunday here in the NE (I’ll believe, it when I see it!) and so I thought I would combine my LOVE of snowflakes with the I LOVE Coffee cup!

Uniko2017winterCLBH1b

{Click Photo for a Closer Look}

I started by using a snowflake from Stunning Snowflakes and stamping it on the background in VersaMark Dazzle Frost and also the sentiment is from the same stamp set, stamped in Altenew Pure Graphite ink.

I then stamped the coffee cup from I LOVE Coffee, coloured it with some NEW Stampin’ Up! Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends and then heat embossed the same snowflake in white on top. After fussy cutting the cup out I have mounted it onto a large Designer Die Snowflake cut from some soft gold shimmer card.

To kick this FABulous hop off I’ve created my own Fall themed coffee card…

Fall2017CLBH1

{Click Photo for a Closer Look}

The weather here in the UK is certainly getting cooler and signs of Autumn (Fall) are appearing with leaves on the floor. I’m not a tea or coffee drinker, but I do like a hot chocolate (cocoa) and sometimes you just need to drink a hot beverage out of a fancy tea cup!

As you can see I was inspired to use the I LOVE Tea clear stamp set, combined with a sentiment and coffee bean trio from I LOVE Coffee and a leaf from Natures Treasures. I was also inspired by this weeks sketch over at CAS(E) this Sketch!HERE and seen below…

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 decided I wanted to play along with the current “Less is More” challenge again HERE which is to use non white white space! Basically a card with a coloured card base and plenty of uncluttered space on the card.

Less-Is-More-Header

I was out walking with the beans this morning and the card idea came to me as I was thinking about which set to revisit this week. So as soon as they went down for their nap I set to making it…

2016SOTW50

I started out by creating a mask of the coffee cup and placing it onto my kraft card base. This helped me to place and trace around a heart die. I then set to stamping the coffee bean trio around the tracing of the heart.

2016SOTW50a

The coffee cup is stamped on a separate piece of kraft CS, as is the red heart from I LOVE Tea and they are both fussy cut out. The “I Love” part of the sentiment is a partial stamped sentiment from Simply Said and the Coffee is a partial stamp from the I LOVE Coffee set.

Ok, that’s all from me today and using this set, I will be back tomorrow with more to share. Don’t forget that this set is discounted HERE on the website this week. Oh, and you might want to join in on the challenges this month over at “Less is More” as Uniko is the sponsor this month 😉

Thanks for stopping by 🙂
