February 2012 Stamp Set Reveal

So there you have it, Uniko Studio's debuting stamp sets! what do you think?

Now, I can hear you thinking ... hmmm they're a little pricey. So now I'm going to tell you a little bit about the stamp sets and how they come packaged. You might think differently then! 




Uniko Studio Stamps are high quality photopolymer stamps manufactured here in the UK. They are designed by myself & lovingly packaged by myself in my studio - for now anyway! As you can see from the photo above they come all ready to use in these handy dandy DVD type cases. FAB huh?! 

All the designs of the stamps contained inside are on the front displayed at 65%. The sets are slightly larger than the common 4 x 6" sets that other companies sell, Uniko sets are approximately 5 1/2 x 8" inch sets. So you're getting a lot more stamp for your money! 

The name of the set is along the spine of the case so you can simply store them on a shelf or in a box & see what each set is without having to take each one out individually. Plus the cases are thin and won't take up too much valuable space in your crafting area in the house! 




The picture above shows how they look inside the case. They come all placed in the case ready for you to use, no assembly required! The only packaging waste is the cellophane wrapper they come in. 

So what do you think now?! 

So how about some eye candy?! I have a few projects to share that I have made using the stamps and I'll post some links too so you can pop on over to the Design Teams Blogs to see what they have created. Even I haven't seen what they have done! I got a tiny peek the other day of one of Kerry's creations and I was 'WOWED' beyond words with what she had done!






The card above is one of my favourites! It is because of the clean lines of the card mixed with the round clocks that are so clean and graphic! I also love this colour combination, the splash of red in amongst the black, shades of grey & white really draws your attention! 

When I designed this set I wanted it to be clean and graphic orientated towards making cards for men as you all know how hard it is making cards for the men in our lives! I did A LOT of research as to what was on the market & the style & wanted to make mine different! Even though the images are clean & graphic there is no reason why you can't use them in a grungy or vintage way, thats what makes them so versatile!




This card uses just the 'Time' stamp set & is the card that people will be making at the make & take with Uniko Studio at The Paperlane Demo Day today! So, if you're in the area pop along and have a try before you buy! 

Now, even though I designed the set to me more masculine I couldn't resist adding a feminine touch to this set to give it more versatility and appeal for the crafter! Below are a few of more feminine cards.




For the above I used the medium & small flower image which appears in the centre of one of the clock faces & simply used my Copic markers to add a splash of colour.




Now for something more colourful to warm you up on this cold February day! Again, I used the smaller flower & stamped it repeatedly in a rainbow of colours. Then adding a small gem to the centres for some sparkle! The ribbon loops at the bottom match the stamped flowers and adds some interest to the card.

Below is one more feminine card. I really love how this one turned out.




I've got one more project to share with you today. As I am a UK company I decided to use the colours of the Union Jack Flag to inspire me.





I hope you have enjoyed the projects I have shared with you today & like the look of the stamps too *WINK*. 

Hopefully the website will be up an running so you can purchase them. As I type this post I have a poorly Fiance who is also my website tech guy who collapsed at work today :( so I'm sure you will understand if there is a slight delay. 

Anyway, there is still Kerry & Aimes' Blogs to check out so pop on over to them to see what they have whipped up!

If you are in the vicinity of The Paperlane or The Stamp Attic the sets can be purchased at those shops! 

Thanks SO much for stopping by, I'd love you to leave me a comment as to what you think about Uniko Studio Stamps!!

    1. Hi Terri, the price conversion to $ works out at £15.95 = $25.25 approx. the shop has a new button for USA & Rest of World with postage cost worked out per set. This in $ is 3.16 per set. These prices will differ slightly due to currency conversions though day to day!

      I'm so glad that you love the stamp sets! It makes me happy & smile!
