October 2023 NEW Release, Brand Ambassador Blog Hop & GIVEAWAY!

Hello, Happy Saturday, Happy World Card Making Day AND Happy New Release Day!

Wow! Could the weekend be any better? 

I hope you have enjoyed my introductions this week and I’m super excited to share these new products with you. They will be available to purchase at 9pm BST tonight HERE on the website.

Hopefully you have hopped over from HERE where I have formally introduced the NEW products and you will find links to all the Brand Ambassador blogs.

And now I have some more inspiration for you using them in order of introduction.

First up, BIG & BOLD thank/s/ful.

On Tuesday when I introduced this clear stamp set, I mentioned another sentiment combination this set would provide and here it is. Though, there is a tiny catch, you do need to have the previously released BIG & BOLD You clear stamp for this one.

I’ve gone for soft pastel shades for this card, using Pebble for the sentiment. I used my stamping tool to stamp this, so I could get a really crisp and even stamped image.

For the flowers which are the poppy heads from Remembrance, fussy cut out I ink blended Grapefruit and Sorbet onto some scrap white card and stamped them in black.

The leaves are from BIG & BOLD Thanks and I did the same, ink blended some Aqua Sky onto scrap card before cutting out.

You might need sunglasses 😎 for this next card the green is quite bright.

I created a DL card to showcase Autumn Serenade this time and I have stamped the falling leaves 4 times around my card to fill the space.

I added glitter to the open leaves for that frosty sparkle and chose the Fall Breeze and Autumn Leaves sentiment this time.

Next we have Remembrance and this time I used a sketch from Freshly Made Sketches seen HERE and below for my layout.

I loved the overlapping circles on the sketch and I instantly pictured overlapping poppy flowers.

I used a trio of Stampin’ Blends to colour the poppies before fussy cutting them out.

I used foam adhesive to give them a little lift off the card and added the Thinking Of You sentiment from Simply Said Blocks II.

Lastly, and by no means least we have Framed Snowflakes. This time I wanted to give the smaller stamps a whirl, quite literally!

I’ve not used my Altenew Stamp Wheel for a bit, so dusted it off for this card. It made stamping the mandala of snowflakes really easy.

That’s all I have to share for today, I hope you have enjoyed this release 😊 Don’t forget the products will be available on the website tonight at 9pm.

Lest We Forget…

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them.

UnikoThinkingOfYou

A simple, yet poignant symbol of remembering. I have used Uniko Style to stamp my poppy and added a sentiment from Simply Said Blocks II.
