Hi everyone,
Welcome to Uniko's 11th birthday reveal, release, Brand Ambassador blog hop and GIVEAWAY!
Spring Botanicals Crocus
These beauties took a little while to colour and fussy cut but I think the final result is worth it. It’s hard to see from the photo but this is a floating frame which really does look quite impressive with the beautiful large crocus heads.
Hoppy Easter
When I saw these cute bunnies I immediately wanted to make them into bunny shaped cards! They are quite small as the whole stamp set is A6 in size but honestly it just makes them cuter!
Up & Away and Everyday Spring Sentiments
Quite often when I look at the component parts of a stamp set I see how it can be used in different ways and for me the hot air balloons in this set made me want to create a fantastic large floral bloom! The sentiments from the new Everyday Spring Sentiments set matched perfectly too.
Cloud 9 Stencil
Earlier in the week I mentioned how well the Up & Away stamp set would work with the Cloud 9 stencil so I created this card to prove it!
Falling Hearts Serenade
For this card I had the great idea that I would attempt to mirror stamp the image and create a full heart…many attempts later and I gave up with the mirror stamping…clearly not a technique I’m cut out for! In the end I lined up each individual element on the left hand side and stamp and heat embossed them one by one. Yes, I’m that insane! Looks good though I think.
Everyday Love Sentiments & Bokeh Layering Hearts Stencil
I love the font style of this set and teamed up with
Uniko Everyday Sentiments, Everyday Spring Sentiments and
Christmas Sentiments you really do get a very useful group of mix and match sentiments for many occasions.
Unfortunately I don’t have any inspiration images to show using the Bokeh Layering Hearts but I do know they are going to be just fab! The hearts have been sized to fit within each other and also to work with other heart stamps in the Uniko range such as
Big & Bold Love.
So that’s the lot! It’s always great to find out which release items have captured your heart so do let us know. Be a bunny and hop over to all the Uniko Brand Ambassador’s blogs to leave some love and be in with a chance of winning a £30 eGift Certificate to spend in the Uniko store.
What a great set of cards Steph, love how you turned the balloon into a large bloom, very inventive!
ReplyDeleteFab set of cards Steph - there are some really lovely stamps and stencils in the new release and you showcase them perfectly. I think my favourites have to be the crocus, hot air balloon and cloud stencil.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards. Love the crocus circle and the cute bunnies. Hugz ionabunny
ReplyDeleteAwesome cards! I am loving the gorgeous crocus flowers, and the bunny cards are so sweet! Great new designs!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lot of hard work you've put into these fantastic cards. Using the balloon as a large flower head is inspirational. Genius! Making the bunnies into a mini card is a great idea (could use as a place setting for Easter dinner!) I didn't understand what a floating frame was, (it took me a while to google it and find it lol,) but I did and I love it! I'm glad I'm not the only one who can't do the mirror stamping, it's nice to read that you tried again and gave up. Thanks for all the inspiration. Have a great weekend. X X
ReplyDeleteGreat cards showing these lovely new designs - the balloon flower is really inventive Steph and it's made a beautiful card! x
