Guess what was waiting for me upon our return from our vacation/bike racing events? The brand-spanking new Uniko Studio May 2018 Release! You've seen the amazing stamps, stencils and dies in action - gorgeous action, I might add - during the introduction week, but just in case you need an 'extra' nudge to add a few of these gems to your collection, a few of us from the Design Team will be participating in a Release in Review week. I'm excited to finally have a chance to play with my new goodies!
Today, we're featuring the oh-so-pretty Just Because and Large Background French Script stamps.
Initially, I planned to pair the sets to create one card, but decided, nope...they deserve 'solo' performances (with a snippet of help from an older Simply Said sentiment). A rainbow(ish) palette on both, created with three distress inks: Picked Raspberry, Mustard Seed and Mermaid Lagoon.
The card below sees the Just Because flower inked, then spritzed to blend the colours. The font of the 'because'...swoon!
Here, the inks were blended, die cut and stamped with the delicately lined French Script...
Easy to recreate, especially when lovely stamps do all the work!
See you tomorrow for another round of showcases! For more inspiration using these sets, head over to Rahmat's place; she has some beauties!

Fabulous cards Carol.Love the watercolour effect on the first one and the pretty background of colour on the script one. We are having our summer early here in the UK at the moment...I am not complaining but fear once it rains then that will be the end of it till next year! Hugs xx
ReplyDeleteWelcome home, Carol! Wow! These are so pretty! I adore the watercolor effect you achieved on the first card. It's fabulous and that sentiment is so sweet.
