I Just Wanted to Say ...

Thank You! 

It's only been 3 weeks and already I feel LOVED! The blog here has reached 50 followers and Facebook 44 so I wanted to say THANK YOU to all that are following me, commenting & enjoying what Uniko Studio has to offer! 

I'd LOVE more followers and for you all to keep spreading the word about Uniko Studio! But for now I am happy and I will tell you a lil bit about the card I have made today.




This is a cute little 4 1/4" square card. I used Soft Stone (PTI) CS which is a great neutral. It's not too grey and not too white so it's just right! LOL! I stamped the 3 circles image onto the base card using Versamark ink which gives a lovely subtle background detail. You can just about see this on the lower left of the card in the photo.

I then stamped the clock face from the Time set in Black Memento Ink and used my Copics to colour it in. I just did simple one colour colouring with no blending but just alternated the colours in the clock face. The clock face is simply cut out by hand and layer onto a 1 3/4" circle punched from Hawaiian Shores (PTI) CS.

I then used a frame paper punch from Fiskars {I think} and punched one from white & one from Basic Grey CS. To get the white frame inside the grey frame I simply cut each of the punched pieces in half and layered the white frame just inside the grey frame. I then used double sided tape to adhere the clock face  to both sides of the frame.

The whole piece is then mounted onto the card base using foam pads & then I stamped the sentiment below in Memento Black ink. Simple, but effective and another way to stretch your paper punches a lil further if they aren't quite big enough! 

I hope you have enjoyed todays card and you are inspired to have a play with paper punches & stretch them a lil further! 

Thanks for stopping by today! Be sure to check back tomorrow to see who the winner is of the stamp set from the blinkie giveaway!
