Introducing Seeing Stars and Pure Floral Large Chrysanthemum

On day 2 of the release I have two stencil inspired cards to share.

This first one uses the brand new Pure Florals Large Chrysanthemum stencil.

This card was made by first dry embossing the huge bloom with the stencil. check your die cutting machine for the right sandwich, but you will need a tan embossing mat or equivalent. Once embossed you need to work on the side where the petals are debossed and the white lines raised. I used Zig pens to colour the sections but any form of pen would work. 

On a sunny yellow base card I stamped the sentiment from the Spring Botanicals Daffodil set and heat embossed it, added a strip of gold linen effect card and the trimmed down embossed panel to finish.

This fab Chrysanth reminds me of my late Dad who grew these huge blooms in regimented rows at the bottom of the garden, they certainly brought a bit of sunshine inside when cut.

The second card showcases the Seeing Stars Stencil.

The stencil co-ordinates perfectly with the already released Uniko sets, Reach for the Stars, Background Builders- Seeing Stars and Background Blocks- Stars.

I inked through the stencil in the right hand corner using Twisted Citron, Salty Ocean, Peacock Feathers and Mown Lawn. A few smaller stars were added by stamping the smallest of the solid stars from the Background Builders- Seeing Stars set in the same colours, before stamping the sentiment from the Reach for the Stars set and adding some dots of white Cosmic Shimmer glue.

Has that whetted your appetite, if so there's more to come from me and the rest of the team over the next few days.

The release schedule can be found over on the Uniko blog HERE as well as links and peeks at how my fellow DT members have worked their magic with these fab stencils!
Thanks for stopping by, hope to see you back for more release inspiration tomorrow.
