Good morning and welcome to the Uniko release day, blog hop and GIVEAWAY!!
We hope you've enjoyed seeing all the new stamps and stencils that Bev has designed and now you can see what the sets are all about and more importantly get your hands on them!!
Here are a few reminders of what is in the release.
First off we have the Layering Christmas Bauhaus Blocks, a 3 part set that allows you to build up a pattern, as big or as small as you want. This card uses another 3 x 3 panel I made from the original A5 sheet I created.
For this I die cut the word JOY from an alphabet die set from gold mirror card, placing them diagonally across the grid. This was then mounted on more gold then onto a square white base card.
Here are the set I made from the one panel, and there are still some squares left!!
Stencil - Layering Bauhaus Christmas Blocks £10.75

My next card featured the BB Christmas Scramble. I think this is a great stamp for a quick but impactful card. Here I've used metallic paints on a black base and gold embossing.
Lots of other ways to colour the bold lettering or just leave it blank!

Now we are onto the stencils, a couple of ink n flips featuring small trees and snowflakes, always a perennial favourite.
This card was made using an off cut from the intro post card, made extra Christmassy with more red and gold.
This next card uses the offcut again, waste not want not!
Not sure what went wrong with the EP on the large greeting but I quite like the texture it gave, even if it wasn't what I had first intended!

Finally it's Flower Power #12. For this idea I've not used the flower elements but the sentiments to fill a panel, then embossed with white EP and inked with Mowed Lawn DI. A trio of die cut fir trees, no idea of brand they were a freebie from a craft retreat, complete
So that's it but I'm sure that Bev and the rest of the BAs have lots more ideas about how to use this release. Why not check them out and leave some love on the way AND have the chance to win a prize.
