Coffee Lovers Blog Hop - Uniko

Good morning, 

The Uniko Brand Ambassadors are taking part in the Coffee Lovers blog hop today. My card uses Uniko I LOVE Coffee stamp set.

I stamped the coffee cups onto card I had previously stencilled using Uniko Layering Spring Blossom stencil set. I fussy cut them out and adhered them to a panel onto which I stamped the sentiment and the coffee beans. 

If you join in the Uniko Brand Ambassadors blog hop, you will be in with a chance of winning a £25 eGift card. Leave a lovely comment along the hop before 30th May to be in with a chance of winning.

Uniko Brand Ambassador Inspiration - Alphabets and Animals!

Good morning, 

Did I mention how much I loved the Uniko Alphabet Solid stamp set during the February birthday release? So, I have used this stamp set as my focus for my Uniko Brand Ambassador inspiration post this month and teamed it with Uniko's animal themed stamps, creating some 'play on words' sentiments to add even more fun! 

First we have a 'Hoppy' birthday card using the bunny from the Uniko Hoppy Easter stamp set and the birthday from the Uniko WILD stamp set (currently unavailable).

I'm particularly pleased with this daft sentiment! The cat stamp is from the Uniko Mid Century Modern Purrfect Day stamp set. The rest of the sentiment is made from parts from the 'From our home to yours' in the Uniko Festive Sentiments stamp set. 

And finally, also a slightly daft sentiment teamed with the paw print from the Uniko Paw Print Heart stamp set and a heart from the Uniko Falling Hearts Serenade stamp set. 

For all these cards I used VersaMagic chalk inks which give a nice effect to the silhouette style of these cards.

Thanks for visiting today.

Much love

AAA Colourful Colourboard #16

Morning all, 

AAA Colouful have an interesting colourboard challenge for you today which includes black and white with limited other colours.

I thought this colourboard was well suited to a sympathy card which I created using Uniko's Hello Lovely stamp set.

I'm looking forward to seeing what you create with this colourboard and urge you to head over the the AAA Colourful blog to join the challenge and check out the amazing creations by the rest of the Design Team.

Uniko Brand Ambassador Non Release Blog Hop & GIVEAWAY

Good morning, 

On non release month's at Uniko we like to have a little recap of the newest products. Since it has been a very busy start to the year with three releases and February’s big birthday month we haven’t yet done a review so today we are revisiting ALL of the 2025 new products so far. 

From the April 25 release I already had the idea to do the above card. I stamped the floral from the Uniko Originally Organic Flower Garden stamp set four times, rotating the card in the stamping platform each time. There was a little masking needed at the outer edges. I then coloured the florals and stamped sentiments from Uniko Organic Blooms stamp set and the retired Uniko You Are, Yes You stamp set. I made this card with a friend in mind who has recently had a cancer diagnosis. 

For my next card I also used a product from the most recent release because I was really taken by the versatility of the Uniko Ink & Flip Delightful Diamonds stencil.

For this card I used transparent matt stencil paste in two areas of the card, flipped the stencil and inked the black. 

There's lots more fantastic creations and a GIVEAWAY if you follow the Brand Ambassador blog hop below. Bev is generously giving a prize of a £25 eGift Voucher if your comment is selected.

The Male Room Challenge #198 - Under the Sea

Morning all, 

Today at The Male Room, we have a new challenge for you and the theme is 'Under the Sea'.

It took me a while to decide what I was going to use for this challenge as it turns out I have quite a lot of sea related stamps and dies! In the end I opted for a set I got with a past craft magazine.

I heat embossed the shells and star fish with clear embossing powder before adding a mixture of watercolour inks across the panel. I accidentally got a couple of splashes lower down on the panel but decided to continue because this is the definition of handmade and unique! Finally I added a sentiment from another set in my stash.

I'm looking forward to seeing your creations so pop on over to The Male Room blog and join in! 

Much love
