Introducing Background Blocks Layered Floral and Simply Said Blocks III

Good morning. Time for another reveal at Uniko. Today we are showcasing the new Background Blocks Layered Floral set and Simply Said Blocks III.

Here's a card using the floral set.

This is a two part stamp with a few extra mini stamps. For this card I stamped the floral element in two shades of Pink before adding the foliage stamp with some lime green. This was repeated twice and a few spaces were filled with some more tiny leaves. 

Once the panel was dry, I used a slimline die to cut the frame and center panel. Using the happy die from Big n Bold Happy, I die cut once from the flowery panel and again from pink fun foam, layered the two together and popped them back into the panel, not forgetting the tiny bits from the a and ps. A stamped sentiment from the same Big n Bold set complete the greeting. The frame was attached to the base card and the flower panel added inside.

My second card features Simply Said Blocks III. 

Using the colours from this week's JUGS, a few of the sentiments were stamped, cut out and added to panel with a die cut shaped heart. I used Altenew's Teal Cave, Honey Drizzle and Silver Stone. On a white A6 card, the BB Scattered Hearts was stamped with grey. The completed panel was then added over the top with foam pads. I quite like the unusual colours, it could be used as an anniversary card to a fella, not too mushy!

Well that's it for today but don't forget to check out the rest of the team, comment as you hop along for the chance to win some Uniko goodies.

Uniko January Release in Review and Blog Hop

It's almost been 2 weeks since the January 2020 Release at Uniko but we thought you might like some more BA inspiration from Bev and the rest of the team

So, with that in mind Bev thought it would be nice for a January 2020 Release In Review Blog Hop & giveaway!

First up is this card.

I've used the grungy heart from the Big n Bold Love set and the small outlined heart from Always and Forever, the gold embossed sentiment is also from that set.

The layout is the latest sketch from the Paper Players and the colours from Sunday Stamps. I added some Glossy Accents to the small hearts which has not allowed the shades of red Copic colouring to show up!

My second card uses the gorgeous Hello Lovely stamp and the Background Blocks Scattered Hearts. The sentiment is from the previously released Sentiments Outlined but there is also a new set to go with this release, You Are Sentiments Outlined.

This card was made at the same time as the wedding card for my BA post but my daughter went with that card.

I used the Scattered Hearts to create a soft background by stamping it in Altenew's SilverStone ink before layering up the fussy cut and coloured Hello Lovely cluster up on pads. The sentiment from Sentiments Outlined, was stamped in the darker Industrial Diamond Altenew ink with a shadow added with a BG96 Copic to make it look 3D. A few clear sequins complete the design.

Below is a little look at the January 2020 release and when you click on an image it will take you to the website where you can read more about them and purchase them if you like.

So now it's time to check out the rest of the Brand Ambassadors for more release inspiration. Be sure to comment along the way for your chance to win the Hello Lovely & You Are, Sentiments Outlined clear stamp sets.

You have until Midnight Thursday 6th February 2020 to leave a comment and the random winner will be announced Friday 7th February 2020.
