Myself, the Uniko Brand Ambassadors and our Guest Designer are here today to remind you about the September/October 2020 Uniko challenge.
We have a super easy theme of Anything Goes with the optional twist of Thanks.

Challenge Guidelines:
* You can use any products/stamps to enter the challenge, but we do LOVE to see you use your Uniko products. Plus, there is an extra chance to win a prize if you do 😉
* Email entries welcome, just email a photo of your card to bev@uniko.co.uk and I will add it to the Uniko Flickr gallery and link up!
* Share the challenge graphic in your post and link back to the challenge if possible 😉

We’re super delighted to welcome back Ishani as our Guest Designer and she has created another incredibly beautiful card to inspire you to play along. 

Guest Designer – Ishani

Isn’t that just the most incredible use of Uniko goodies?

Don’t forget to check out all the Brand Ambassador inspiration over HERE and you will also find the link up for challenge entries.

I was inspired to get creative and dusted off the Kindness Blooms clear stamps and Designer Dies. (Bundle Offer available HERE).

I chose Altenew’s Warm & Cozy ink collection to stamp the dotted background. I then selected some card scraps that matched for my mat layer and to die cut the largest Kindness Blooms bloom.

The layout of my card was inspired by the current challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches seen HERE and below.

I popped the die cut up with some foam adhesive & added the stamen image and some Nuvo Simply White Crystal Drops – love how the colour of these change when you add them over dye ink. It kinda sucks up some of the colour! The sentiment is from Simply Said Blocks.

Today seems bittersweet. Normally I would have the studio packed up and I would be well on my way to Port Sunlight for Happy Stampers Festival. This October show would have been the last organised by Liz.

I remember clearly how Liz spent many years trying to get me to exhibit at Happy Stampers & looking back in hindsight I regret not doing it sooner! This show in May & October was my favourite event in my yearly calendar.

A night away with a friend with a glass or two of Prosecco and as ALWAYS I would be finishing off display boards. My perfectionism kicking in big time with a mix of pre show nerves and excitement.

I will miss seeing all your wonderful faces at the show, catching up with you all and giving you all a big hug. So I am sending virtual hugs your way.

However, tomorrow is World Card Making Day! A day in the card makers calendar we all look forward to and with the show landing on this day I usually miss/forget organising something fun.

So tomorrow, be sure to check out Uniko’s social media (Instagram & Facebook) for a GIVEAWAY and more!!

Until then, have a wonderful Friday.
