Hi! Welcome to the next Uniko Studio Challenge!

We are happy to have two special Guest Designers joining us for this challenge! Please check out Anita's and Julie's blog if you aren't familiar with their work, and to see their projects for this challenge!

THEME: Black & White with Optional Twist: Splash of Color

• You can use ANY stamps in the challenges
• You can enter as many times as you want and enter as many other challenges as you want combined with ours!

This is a very simple and quick card to make! The panel that's attached to the card base is vellum, and the main panel is die cut then stamped with the flowers, then the sentiment, then the teeny, tiny dots. It's attached using some foam tape for dimension.
I hope I brought some inspiration to you, and I would LOVE to see you create something for our challenge!

You have until Friday, July 31st, 2:00am CST, to link your card up on the Uniko Blog.

Uniko July Release Day!

Hello and welcome to this exciting day over at Uniko! The July release is now available to purchase here!

As you may have seen over the last few days, I have shared a few sneak peeks with you leading up to this release. I have really enjoyed creating with these new sets!!

Now you can see the full sets below...

Garlands Galore - £9.95

This set features garland / bunting building stamps and a mini alphabet. The small solid garlands measure 10.5 cm in length and the two larger garlands 14cm approx.

Home Sweet Home - £4.95

This set features a simple house and new home sentiments. The house measures 6.5 x 6.5 cm approx.

Pure Florals: Cosmos - £4.95

This is the first mini Pure Florals set as the flowers work better on a smaller scale. The double flower stamp measures 4.2 cm x 7.5 cm approx. Make a Wish sentiment measures 4.5 cm x 1.2 cm approx.

As I've mentioned in my post yesterday, I think the Pure Florals: Cosmos set is just GORGEOUS! I recently received some of the new Ranger Distress Inks and I wanted to try them out. I created a beautiful blended, bright background for the white heat embossed flowers. I just love watching the white watercolor paper transform into such wonderful, happy colors!!! For a finishing touch, I added some Pretty Pink Posh Sparkling Clear Sequins.

As tradition holds, we have our release day blog hop, simply visit and comment along the hop by midnight Saturday, July 18th (GMT), to be in the chance of winning the ENTIRE release! If you have already purchased any or all of the release, a refund will be given.

Uniko - Introducing Pure Florals: Cosmos

Hello there! Today I'm sharing with you my card using Uniko's new stamp set called "Pure Florals: Cosmos". Beginning July 11th, 2015 (that's TOMORROW!), you will be able to purchase this set HERE along with the other new sets being released this month!!

In case you missed it a couple days ago, here is the Sneak Peek photo of the stamp set.

This set is AMAZING!!!! I absolutely LOVE the flowers in this set! They are so delicate and have so much potential since it's an outlined image. Watercolor, colored pencils, copics or other markers, embossing, etc. would ALL be awesome ways to dress up these flowers.

I embossed the flower, the sentiment, and the background vines all with gold EP. The flowers are water colored using one of the new Tim Holtz Distress Ink colors, Abandoned Coral. It's a BEAUTIFUL color!! The flower panel is cut using a Top Dog Dies die cut, and mounted to the card base using foam adhesive.

Thanks for stopping by and make sure to visit all the design team members and Beverley's blog to see more awesome creations using this gorgeous set! COME BACK TOMORROW FOR MORE!!

Uniko Studio Introducing Home Sweet Home

Hello there! Today I'm sharing with you my card using Uniko's new stamp set called "Home Sweet Home". Beginning July 11th, 2015, you will be able to purchase this set HERE along with the other new sets being released this month!!

In case you missed it a couple days ago, here is the Sneak Peek photo of the stamp set.

I used a watercolor technique on this card, but I'm not too thrilled with how it came out. First, I heat embossed the house using black embossing powder. Then, using the Tim Holtz Distress Markers, I colored in each section of the house using different colors. I even added a bit of color outside the house to make it look like grass, but it didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. Anyway, after coloring, I sprayed it with water and then let it dry. The panel was die-cut with MFT Stitched Rectangles die, and adhered to the card base.

Thanks for stopping by and make sure to visit all the design team members and Beverley's blog to see more awesome creations using this fun set! COME BACK TOMORROW FOR MORE!!
