November 2017 Uniko Design Team Blog Hop and Giveaway

Hello,

Hope your weekend is off to a good start and we - Bev, my design teammates and I - over at Uniko Studio, are aiming to make it even better!  Welcome to the November 2017 Uniko Design Team Blog Hop and Giveaway!

In October, lovely Bev released four new items (seen below) and we've come together showcase them.  My post is photo heavy - I'll keep chatting to a minimum (okay, I'll try...), but I suggest a cup of something to keep you awake, because once you're done here, you have some hopping to do!

New Uniko Studio Products
 
 


Okay...show rolling!

First...a set of kraft and glitter paper Snowflake magnets/ornaments, with a Tim Holtz Idea-Ology Typed Tokens as centers.  The four with magnets are attached to an Ikea shelving unit in our kitchen; the 'ornaments' are on one of my gi-normous pine cones (I collect pine cones...long story)...


A few close-ups....

 

 


I'll definitely be making more of these!

Next, I used the die that corresponds with Flower Power #1 to create two poinsettia cards. Also featured are the Scattered Polka Dots (in Delicata Gold), leaves from Winter Foliage and sentiment - on the right - from Rustic Wreath.

 

A couple challenges popped up while I was prepping for this hop, so I brought out the snowflake dies once again; they were quite ready to play along! For Simon Says Wednesday Challenge~Snow White, a glitter paper/white paper snowflake on the stage...


and for Merry Monday Challenge #264~Kraft And Red, this:


Whew!  Thanks for spending time with me! 

Sending you on your merry way to visit my awesome Design Team who will take your breath away with their impressive creativity. Do leave comments (details here) to be in the running for prizes. Fabulous prizes!


Carol (me)

Thank you for dropping by!

  3. I have snowflake dies. And stamps. Several of each in several sizes. I thought I was done...until I saw these Uniko beauties you've created. I can hear them calling my name, I swear! Those kraft and white snowflakes you've made are incredible! I'm nearly speechless. Love the sweet little poinsettia card with it's bright colors and the sweet background, too. And your snowflake card...oh goodness, it's stunning. Hope you're having a wonderful weekend. Chat soon. Bev

  8. I absolutely adore those snowflake hanging decorations and they’re my Christmas colours this year so I’ll be borrowing that idea. Then using Flower Power #1as a poinsettia is a perfect idea. Wonderful showcase Carol.
