Release Day @ Uniko

Morning all, it's release day at Uniko!!
Here are just a few more ideas using the new June release.

Have you ever thought about the off cuts that are leftover when you trim a stencilled panel down to the size you want for a project? Well I thought exactly that when I had lots of little strips left over from this month's projects. This first card uses the BB Scramble ThankYou and some inky strips from The Chevron Duo stencil.

In my earlier post I used DI in Salty Ocean and Peacock Feathers to create some stencilled panels but I needed some contrast for some of the letters so on some plain scrap card, I used some Picked Raspberry DI to create a mini panel which I over stamped the Thank You image. For the turquoisey stencilling, I used a different method and cut up the thin strips and stamped them by inking the stamp and pressing the card over the letter I wanted. All the letters were then fussy cut. On another scrap of white, I stamped the Scramble Thank You in black, coloured the flower with Copics and placed the fussy cut letters on top. Still not quite happy, I added Peacock Feathers to a couple of the blue letters and more Picked Raspberry to the two pink letters before glueing them down.
My panel was trimmed and added to a leftover piece of the holographic card from earlier and mounted the whole lot onto an A6 white note card.

This second card uses the scraps from Ink n Flip Triangulate woven to give an abstract pattern.

I did cut some of the leftovers into smaller strips to ensure I had enough to fill the apperture, finally weaving them together to get this effect. The woven panel was laid over the opening and glued into place before flipping it over and adding the Bauhaus Blocks sentiment and a few die cut black dots. The finished panel was then added to the base card on foam pads.

Finally I have this card which uses the left over panel from the Modern Floral layered stencil.

I followed an old Jennifer McGuire tutorial over on You Tube for the layout.
Sentiment is from Pure Florals Peony, embossed and fussy cut and the text strip is Everyday Sentiments stamped in Picked Raspberry.

So what do you think of the release. I'm sure you will love the versatility, really important when our purses are stretched and purchases are considered!

Introducing Modern Blooms Layering Stencil

Morning all, it's day 3 of our introductions of Uniko's June release. Today we have a fab layering stencil for all you MCM followers, Modern Blooms.


Love the styalised blooms on this design of Bev's which I've teamed with a simple bold sentiment, Christmas and Birthday Sentiments.
Each layer allows you to add detail in a different colour, I've used a mix of DIs in Seedless Preserve, Picked Raspberry, Mustard Seed and Twisted Citron for the main elements. Whilst the stencil was in place I added some darker shades to the flowers and leaves. The Blue dots were Salty Ocean and the flower hilights Vintage Photo.
To make the panel have a softer feel, I added a soft inking of a matching colour over the flowers and leaves. The happy birthday was stamped in black and outlined freehand with a white gel pen for some added dimension and the completed panel added to my white A6 base card on foam pads.

What do you think? Bev and the rest of the girls have come up with some fab ideas, why not check them out.


I'll be back tomorrow with another introduction, see you then.
