Tuesday 12th December - Introducing... Spring Botanicals: Snowdrop & Scattered Polka Dots Large Background

Hello,

If you haven't already sent your crafting must-have list to Santa, hold on for just a few days more, as I think you may have some additions!  After two days of the Uniko December 2017 New Release sneak peeks, it's time for the 'reveals' to take the stage.  Hold on to your stockings; there's some absolutely lovelies in the mix!

Today, we're introducing Spring Botanicals: Snowdrop & Scattered Polka Dots Large Background. The snowdrop is soooo pretty, with its delicate line detail, which I decided to highlight on my card. I stamped the polka dot background in lilac, using a new-to-me line of ink from Your Next Stamp (stamps/dies I know about...the inks...oh my!), fussy cut the snowdrop and accented it with sentiments from Simply Said Blocks.



Plotting and scheming some copic or pencil colour practice with this elegant bloom in the near future.

We have three more days of introductions before the BIG release and giveaway; details are at  the Uniko blog HERE. You'll also find links and peeks at the gorgeous cards from the rest of the team. Do visit their places; not only will you be dazzled by their designs, but prizes are part of the mix, too!


Thank you for dropping by!

So sophisticated Carol. I love how you've left the snowdrop image completely un-coloured and your fuzzy cutting is super accurate. Delicate, feminine and totally chic! x
