A few of my favourite things!

Hey!

There are a lot of things I love in life and I could probably write an essay length post, but don't worry, I'm not going to! 

Today I am sharing a card which incorporates a few of my favourite things in paper crafting, stamping & designing.

I created todays card firstly in my favourite colour combination, yep you guessed it, turquoise, pink & yellow!




Another of my favourite things is to join in on paper crafting challenges. Since the beans arrived and running Uniko, I don't have a whole lot of time to 'play' with my paper crafting supplies! But tonight I set aside a little time to play! I had this card idea in my head using the CAS Colours & Sketches layout seen HERE and below for the July Release here at Uniko, but I simply ran of of time to make samples.




Another of my favourite things to do relates to my design process. When designing new stamps for Uniko I often look back at sets I have previously released for inspiration and coordination purposes. I LOVE getting the most out of my stamps and breathing new life into previously released ones and opening up more creative possibilities.




This applies to the 2 sets I have used on todays card, Garlands Galore & Flower Power #7. I used the flower from Flower Power #7 to create the solid flower garland and I love the combined result of using them together on this card :) 

How about a little FUN GIVEAWAY... This flower also appears in another 2 Uniko clear stamp sets, the first person to guess them both correctly in the comments below will receive a stamp set in the mail! 

Ok, that's all from me today, don't forget there is still time to join in & comment along the July Reveal, Release & GIVEAWAY Blog Hop HERE to win the ENTIRE July Release!

Thank you for stopping by today :)

    1. The flower in Balloon Bash is a VERY close match Marion, but it's missing the centre detail!

    2. In that case it's got to be Label Love Thank You

  7. Such a lovely card, Bev; certainly a celebration of your favourite things! Your challenge is exactly that...and my guesses are: Background Builders: Flower Power and Label Love, where I think I see that pretty flower inside the small label. Fingers crossed....

  10. The way your stamp sets can be mixed and matched is one of the very best things about them - makes them such a good investment. Thanks for making such a pretty card using the sketch at CC&S, always love to see your cards pop up.
