Hello,

Hope you've been enjoying the introductions of Uniko's February 2020 New Release so far! Still a few more days before the *BIG* reveal!

Day 4 sees us sharing cards using the fabulous Kindness Blooms stamps with their brand-spanking new dies! Yayyyy! These dies are awesome in bringing  more possibilities to this ever-so-versatile loopy-loveley set!

I focused on the 'outline' dies for my floral arrangement...and isn't that sweet stamped-and-die-cut 'kind' adorable! LOVE it!

I'm excited to show you a second card...on reveal day! This stamp/die combination is so.much.fun!

Sending you off to hop to see the delights created by the rest of the Uniko team. Bev will be randomly selecting some comments left on the Introducing hops to win prizes!

Uniko February 2020 New Release: Introducing Anniversaire Arts Décoratifs & Background Builders Arts Décoratifs

Hello,

Welcome to Day 2 of Uniko's February 2020 New Release, where we're introducing two new stamps:

• Anniversaire Arts Décoratifs: a clear stamp set featuring 5 Art Deco style pattern strips that can be used in a variety of ways, as you'll see as you hop.

• Background Builders Arts Décoratifs: a mini stamp set featuring 1920's party sentiments that cover birthday celebrations, roaring good times, drinking champagne and dancing on the tables and a whole lot of razzle dazzle! 

Together, these sets have amazing potential!

I confess: because I have zero knowledge about 'art deco' (should have taken some art history classes in University!),  I undertook some research to glean ideas. Black and gold seemed to be a popular palette so...I went with it for this card (and a few others you'll see soon).

We could all use some 'razzle dazzle', right? Right!

Uniko February 2020 New Release: Introducing Alphabet Outlined & Background Blocks Arts Décoratifs

Hello,

Welcome to Day 1 of the February 2020 New Release, where we're introducing Alphabet Outlined AND Background Blocks Arts Décoratifs. 

I've used the Alphabet Outlined for my duo of cards, made by stamping one panel then dividing it into two. Birthday Sentiments for the finishing touch! 

Saving my Arts Décoratifs card for release day...

Just Us Girls Challenge #523~Colour Week...Thinking of You on Your Special Day

Hello,

Welcome to Just Us Girls Challenge #523,  where our lovely Ina invites us to use black, gold and cream as our palette!

We are super thrilled to have incredibly talented Betty Jacobson joining us once again as Guest Designer! Please check out her wonderful card; she has created magic with this colour combination. MAGIC, I tell you! As well, please visit my wonderful JUGS team: Sue, Angie, Vicki, Ina, Bobby, Nancy, Lisa, Maria and Cécile. If you have a chance to comment, that would be a real treat; they would love to know you dropped by.

I brought out my Concord & 9th Painted Rose set for my card: black outline/shadow, gold shimmer paper letters and cream/ivory embellishments from Studio Katia! Easy!

That's it from me! Looking forward to seeing how black, gold and cream inspire you!

Thank you for dropping by!

Perfectly CAS Challenge #6~Shapes...You are Loved!

Welcome to Perfectly Cas Challenge #6, where we're inviting you to use SHAPES on your cards! Shapes...broad interpretation, so we're looking for a gallery full-to-bursting with interesting designs!

It's Valentine's Day here so, naturally, I've created a 'love' card using some sweet Paper Smooches stamps and dies! I just adore those little hearts...and they're a wonderful way to use up bitty bits of patterned paper!

Turning the stage over to you! 

Looking forward to seeing your Perfectly CAS *SHAPES* cards in the gallery!

A reminder: For this challenge, we're asking you to use one-third (aka: the rule of thirds) or less on your card designs, leaving plenty of scrumptious white space (two-thirds of your panel) to draw our eyes to to your focal image. Kylie has included an easy-to-follow explanation on the challenge blog here.

Sharing at, because I was inspired by, Paper Smooches February Love Challenge.

Uniko Brand Ambassador Inspiration: WOW! BAM! Awesome 8th Birthday!

Hello,

Uniko's 8th Birthday celebrations are in full swing and in keeping that momentum going, I'm bringing cupcakes...I mean, muffins (blueberry and chocolate chip, to be precise, from Canada's own Tim Horton's)...to the party!

I've used the Uniko Explosion stamps/dies series (definitely favourites!) to make my treat toppers and a birthday card. The sentiment (another favourite) is from All Occasions Sentiment #2 (currently on sale...grab it while you can!).

Here's the card, solo...

and the muffins sporting their celebration decor!

Hope you'll join us in the Birthday gallery here! A reminder that Bev is offering a 10% discount on all orders placed during February 2020!
