Uniko Design Team Blog Hop and GIVEAWAY ...... Fun Flowers Stamps and Stencil
Happy Saturday .......
Let's get the weekend started with a little bit of Blog Hopping fun over on the Uniko Blog
We're having a Design Team Blog Hop and a Giveaway, all centred around the gorgeous Fun Flowers clear stamp set and the pretty co-ordinating Fun Flowers stencil.
It's always nice to revisit products from a previous release that go so well with brand new items ...... it makes your stash work even better when things mix and match don't you think!
If you've already started hopping then you'll have arrived here from Julie's blog ..... I hope you're enjoying all the inspiration.
I've got a card for you here using both the stamps ..... a cute little floral set which is perfect in anyone's craft stash, and the matching stencil .....
The stencil background was a leftover piece from a previous project.
I'd used the stencil in the normal way ..... Distress inks through the design .... to create a pretty background (you can see the card here if you fancy a look). Once I'd finished there was quite a lot of ink left on the stencil itself so, instead of just wiping it clean (I don't like to waste ink!) I spritzed it with water and then used it to print onto a piece of white cardstock. This is the result ..... a pretty watercoloured look (I actually got two prints off it but the other one is a little paler)
I cut the piece to size to fit on the front of my card and then used a stitched edge die to trim the bottom away
Using a couple of the flowers from the stamp set I stamped and heat embossed them in white and then coloured them using the same shades of Distress Ink and a waterbrush
These were then fussy cut and layered before attaching them onto the card front. You can see I also added in a few leaves too.
A cute little sentiment stamped on the bottom ..... from the Uniko All Occasion Sentiments #6 set
and a little something on the inside too
The words are from the brand new Birthday Sentiments set, along with some of the smaller images from Fun Flowers
To add a little more detail, and a touch of texture to the front I finished off by adding a few dots of Nuvo Jewel Accents to the stencil design
Next up is the lovely Lindsey ..... hop over and see even more inspiration using these fun products.
And don't forget to comment along the way for a chance to win the Giveaway ....... a £15 eGift Certificate to spend in the Uniko store.
You have until Midnight (GMT) on Saturday 7th April to complete the hop and leave your comments.
Happy hopping!
