Flippin' Seasonal Fun at Uniko Day 2, Snowflake Revisit

Good morning, over at Uniko we are continuing our Ink n Flip revisit with a new look at Snowflake.

Here are a couple of ideas I came up with.

Firstly I used a similar technique to the Christmas Star card from yesterday but used a stamp this time.

On a panel of white card, I stamped the BB Falling snow stamp over it with Hero Arts Unicorn White ink, then when completely dry inked lightly over both sides of the stencil with Salty Ocean DI to create the snowflake.

The panel was then trimmed down, added to a top fold A6 card, a strip of holographic card and sentiment complete.

This second card uses the Framed Snowflakes and I repeated the technique.

This time I trimmed away the excess and mounted the stencilled panel onto silver card and then onto a side fold blue card. I found a die cut snowflake in my stash and added it to the center before my sentiment, stamped in black on a strip of white card.

For more fab ideas why not pop along to see what the rest of the team have been up to.

You're Going to Flip, Ink and Flip Snowflake Revisit

Good morning. 

Today the Uniko Brand Ambassadors are revisiting the Snowflake Ink and Flip stencil.

Here's my card using a mix of the ink n flip large snowflake stencil and the Let it Snow stencil.

For this weeks revisits and intro, I'm mainly focused on the technique Jennifer McGuire's daughter refers to as the magic reveal.

For this panel, I inked through the Let it Snow stencil onto a panel of white card with white pigment ink then when completely dry I used the Ink n Flip stencil to create a snowflake over the top. I used Salty Ocean DI with a light touch and magically the white snowflakes are revealed!

If you look very closely you can just about see the white snowflakes in the center.

For a change I cut the panel down to a square added it to my base card, added a strip of sparkly silver and a sentiment stamped in Memento Gray Flannel.

That's all for today but here are a few more ideas using the Ink n Flip Snowflake stencil.

Why not pop over to see what the rest of the team have been up to?

Uniko Release Day, Blog Hop and Giveaway!

Good morning. I'm back with a few more ideas using the new release from Uniko.

There's been lots of fab inspiration from the team so far but today you can get your hands on the ne release from today!  They're available now from the Uniko website HERE.

So without further ado, here are a few more ideas to inspire you.

First off is the new Background Block, layered stripes.

Do you remember me saying how it reminded me of a 70's Op Art poster, well I had another go and created this.

A fun, masculine card with my own bit of single point perspective on the sentiment, Framed Balloons.

After stamping in black, I die cut a few circles from the panel and then replaced them so that the pattern was reversed. I decided to leave the top of the panel hanging off the edge of the sentiment panel, I think it gave a more balanced look. It does looks a little more like my O level art piece! I kept it monochrome by leaving the sentiment un coloured and mounting it onto a black base card.

Next up is the Back Builders Perspective stamp.

Much like my introduction design, this design has two of the images, one at 90' to the other, centers matching.

Using a rainbow selection of pencil crayons, I coloured in some of the areas and then attached one of my stash of  sentiments. The finished panel was then added behind a square frame and onto a square base card.

Finally it's the new Ink n Flip snowflake stencil.

Stencil - In & Flip Snowflake  £4.25

This card was a combination of the new stencil and the Large Snowflake1 stencil. 

On a panel of dark blue card I inked through the Ink n Flip stencil to create my snowflake using white pigment ink. Again I thought the contrast between the blue and white inking was too stark, so added the Large Snowflake 1 stencil over the center and inked through with more white ink. Using a WOW embossing pen, I coloured in the exposed blue card, then added some sparkly blue EP and heat set. Another of my stash sentiments and a few diamantes complete.

That's it from me for today but be sure to leave some comment love either here or on the other Brand Ambassador blogs or on social media. You have until midnight Friday 15th December 2023 to comment and then Bev will randomly select a winner to win a £20 eGift Certificate.

Introducing Uniko Ink and Flip Snowflake Stencil

Good morning peeps. It's the final day of introductions for Uniko's mini December release. Today we are focusing on the Ink and Flip Snowflake stencil. This the second in Bev's Ink and Flip series.

Here's the first idea I had with my first try of the new stencil.

 

On a panel of white card, or so I thought, I inked through the stencil with Blueprint Sketch DOx. What I actually realised half way through was that it wasn't plain card but a panel I'd stamped on with a text stamp with Versamark then not used!! Once the ink went onto the panel it gave a very subtle ink resist effect. I quite liked this effect so carried on with the panel!

Once I'd created my snowflake, I decided the white was too much of a contrast, so blended a soft layer of the same ink to knock it back. I used a WOW embossing pen to scribble 'frosty' lines and heat embossed using silver EP. The panel was then trimmed down, added to a white base card and the layered sentiment, made from Doodle Flowers and Christmas sentiments.

This second card is a much subtler effect. I used Peacock Feathers DI this time and started by using the mask from the Large Snowflake1, inking over the mask before inking through the Ink n Flip stencil.

Again I knocked back the white by dragging some of the inking over the white areas and trimmed it down to fit my base card.

The sentiment from Snowflake Serenade was first stamped in black then keeping it in the MISTI, I cleaned the stamp, added WOW embossing pen to the wonderful and stamped again, adding silver EP and heat embossing. The completed sentiment was then fussy cut and added with foam pads. 

That's it from me for the moment, but I'll be back tomorrow with our Blog Hop and Giveaway!

In the meantime, check out the rest of the team for some of their ideas using the new stencil.
