Winners, Winners, WINNERS!

Hey!

I do apologise for leaving you hanging for SO long, the Festive Season preparations got a little out of control! The Beans have not sleeping well from the 22nd and right through till last night, which was a slight improvement, I only had to get up twice during the night! 

With all that going on, I didn't get a whole lot of crafting done or finished and I am way behind on blogging and especially announcing the WINNER of the Uniko December Release Blog Hop Giveaway :( 

Anyway, without further ado lets get to the WINNER! Random.org helped pick the lucky comment number, 209. And the lucky commenter is...

Plain and simple but so pretty.
Wonderful card.
thanks for sharing.

Congratulations Mary! Please email me at bev@uniko.co.uk along with your postal address, no later than Sunday 14th January 2018 and I will get your prize on its way to you! 

As I am so late announcing the winner and it is still the season of giving I have used Random.org to pick 3 more winners who will receive a surprise prize from the December Release! 

The lucky commenters are...

Introducing... Pure Florals: Rose

Hey!

Welcome back to the final day of the product introductions for the December release. This is the exciting bit where you get to see the sneak peeks in action!

Today myself and my awesome Design Team  are introducing the next clear stamp set in the Pure Florals series, Pure Florals: Rose.

You might have noticed a few peeks at this clear stamp set throughout the countdown, but how about a little more inspiration using the stamps in this set...




I decided to use the opening bud rose contained in the set, I have had this ultra CAS design in my head since I designed the set and needed to get it onto a card! 




I am certainly not the likes of Debby Hughes or Michelle Short when it comes to colouring and using different mediums, but I do like to give it a go and do my best! I've used my 'go to' Prismacolor pencils to colour the rose. A simple trio of reds, duo of greens and starting from dark shading to light and blending until I was happy. The sentiment is from Simply Said Blocks.

That's all from me here today, but be sure to hop around the Design Team blogs and leave comments along your way to be in the chance of winning some random prizes!

Introducing... BIG & BOLD Hugs and Large Background Scattered Polka Hearts

Hey!

Welcome back to Day 3 of the product introductions for the December release. This is the exciting bit where you get to see the sneak peeks in action!

Today myself and my awesome Design Team  are introducing a couple of clear stamp sets, first up is another addition to the BIG & BOLD series, BIG & BOLD Hugs. The second product we are introducing today came about following the Large Background Scattered Polka Dots, which we introduced on Tuesday. This time I went for hearts, Large Background Scattered Polka Hearts!

Here is a look a at both the stamp sets combined onto one card...




A classic CAS style card with a bold statement, perfect to send to a friend, loved one or even someone you have never met that might just need that hug.




The Large Background Scattered Polka Hearts is stamped inVersaMark and heat embossed in Gold onto some Melon Berry (Papertrey Ink) card before I die cut a heart shape using the Sizzix Framelits Hearts. I've then mounted the stamped and embossed heart onto the same size black die cut heart to give a shadow effect. 

The 'hugs' is stamped, fussy cut out and adhered using foam adhesive. A simple heart enamel finished the design off.

That's all from me here today, but be sure to hop around the Design Team blogs and leave comments along your way to be in the chance of winning some random prizes!

Introducing.... More Uniko Stencils!

Hey!

Welcome back to day 2 of the product introductions for the December release. This is the exciting bit where you get to see the sneak peeks in action!

Today myself and my awesome Design Team  are introducing 3 NEW Uniko Stencil Designs, Broken Lines, Doodle Flower & Lattice.




Here is a first look a Broken Lines and a peek at another clear stamp set being introduced on Friday ;)




On the card I have stamped and masked the roses before overlaying the stencil design. I've used Distress Oxide Black Soot for the stencilling, but in hindsight I would have used a blacker black to match the VersaFine Onyx Black to match the stamped roses. The sentiment is from Simply Said Blocks.

Next is Doodle Flower...




This stencil is based on the Background Block Doodle Flower but in reverse. I'm looking forward to combining the two on a project together in the near future ;)




Again I have used Distress Oxide inks and I simply LOVE their vibrancy on Kraft card stock. The sentiment is also a peek from the clear stamp set being released on Friday!

Lastly, but by no means least we have Lattice...




Some of my long time followers might remember and even own Background Builders: Lattice, which this stencil is based upon. I'm really loving the Distress Oxide inks, they really do blend like butter! 




This sentiment is another peek from the December FREEBIE clear stamp set, more details about this on Friday!! 

That's all from me here today, but be sure to hop around the Design Team blogs and leave comments along your way to be in the chance of winning some random prizes!
