Introducing... Block Party Love

Happy FriYAY!

I am so excited to share the final product introduction for the January 2026 Release. One, because it's an awesome stamp. But also because it means tomorrow is release day!

Today myself and the Uniko Brand Ambassadors are here to introduce Block Party Love. The next in the Block Party series of stamps which are inspired by the retro Subway Art trend. 

You might know I have a love for fonts and images and this is the perfect way to combine both. The Block Party stamps are super popular and are great for creating those quick, mass produceable cards. I hope you love this one as much as I do.

Let's have a look at it in action.

Introducing... Stencil - Ink & Flip Butterfly Pattern

Hello & Happy Thursday.

Welcome to the second Ink & Flip Stencil introduction for this release. Today I am delighted to be formally introducing Ink & Flip Butterfly Pattern. 

You might have seen this design pop up around social media or even know a crafty friend who has one. This stencil was the free gift from the Uniko October Stamping Retreat. I've been waiting for the right time to release it and this is that time.

Those of you who are eagle eyed might recognise the design of the butterfly and how it coordinates with the previously released Butterfly Serenade clear stamp set. So even more creative possibilities.

Let's have a look at it in action.

It really is a delight to see how the Brand Ambassadors use products. The different layouts, colour combinations and pairings with older products. There is ALWAYS something I didn't think of!

Thank you for joining us today and I hope you come back tomorrow for the last product introduction. All the products being introduced will be available at 9am GMT Saturday 31st January.

Introducing... Stencil - Ink & Flip Heart Pattern

Happy Wednesday. 

Welcome to day 2 of the January 2026 Release product introductions. Thank you for joining us yesterday, I hope you enjoyed all the cards and projects using yesterday’s product introduction. If you missed it, be sure to look back. 

Today we have the first of two Ink & Flip Stencils, Ink and Flip Hearts Pattern. 

I love hearts ♥️, they are such a versatile image and suitable for so many different occasions. I originally designed it as a simple heart split in two. But I felt it needed a little more so divided the heart into quarters. I think it makes the design more striking. 

Let’s have a look at the stencil in action…

Thank you for joining us today and I hope you come back tomorrow for the next product introduction. All the products being introduced will be available at 9am GMT Saturday 31st January.

Introducing... Stencil - Layering Bauhaus Spring Blocks

Hello & Happy Tuesday.

Welcome to Day 1 of the Uniko January 2026 Release product introductions. Today myself and the Uniko Brand Ambassadors are introducing the next addition to the Layering Bauhaus Blocks Stencils. 

The OG Stencil - Layering Bauhaus Blocks is still a favourite of mine and was in the Top 10 of the most sold and popular products of 2025. The addition of the Christmas version Stencil - Layering Bauhaus Christmas Blocks back in July last year was in actual fact the TOP selling product of 2025. So it only seemed fitting that there be a spring version. 

This stencil, like the others has 3 layers and works on the same principle that you can use it as a instant focal point, but also move it to fill a larger space. The squares are all the same size, that the stencils can also be mixed and matched. 

Let's have a look at it in action...

Isn't it fun how everyone came up with different designs, colours, and pairings using previously released Uniko products? The team have wonderfully demonstrated the versatility of this stencil. 

Thank you for joining us today and I hope you come back tomorrow for the next product introduction. All the products being introduced will be available at 9am GMT Saturday 31st January.

January 2026 Release Sneak Peeks

 Hello & Happy Monday!

Here at Uniko we are kicking off a new week and the final week of January with some Sneak Peeks for mini New Release! 

So let's get to the sneak peeks 😃

If you LOVE Uniko's Mid Century Modern & Bauhaus style products, I think you are going to LOVE this new stencil addition. 

Again, this stencil is awesome on its own, but pair it with previously released products not only from the Mid Century Modern Collection, but other Uniko products for even more creative possibilities.

Next up is the first of two new Ink & Flip Stencils and again, if you love these all over pattern designs, you will LOVE this one.

If you were an attendee of the last Uniko Stamping Retreat here in the North East, you will most likely recognise this next Ink & Flip Stencil sneak peek, as it was the free gift. I am finally getting round to adding it to the website for purchase.

Those of you with eagle eyes and who know their Uniko products might see the connection to some previously released stamps.

And lastly, but by no means least I have a new clear stamp addition...

That wraps up the peeks and I am sure there will be something for everyone. I do hope you will find time to join myself and the Uniko Brand Ambassadors from tomorrow as we start the introductions.

All these products will be available at 9am GMT Saturday 31st January.

Brand Ambassador Inspiration - Giving some Love to the Always & Forever Set

Izzy here with two Love cards.

And here comes the time for love cards again, since the next holiday to celebrate (apart from Uniko's 14th anniversary!) is Valentine's Day.

For this occasion, I highlighted the Always & Forever set which I combined with other Uniko products.

With that tune of "Love is in the air" stuck in my head, I made this first card.

I took one of the hearts from the set and transformed it into a hot air balloon using the Up & Away set, in which I used the basket.

For the background, I first made a colour gradient and then, using the Scattered Polka Hearts stencil, I added all the little hearts.

And to finish my card I stamped the sentiment, also coming from the set Up & Away.

For my second card, I used the second heart with the beautiful flower inside. I stamped it in black on a die cut circle and I coloured the inside with coloured pencils.

For the background I used the Background Blocks Scattered Hearts stamp, that I simply stamped in black on a square of white card stock. I matted it on a fuchsia card stock and adhered it on a double white card.

To finish, I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment from the Simply Said set. I matted it, as well as the heart, on a fuchsia card stock and I adhered them on the background.

Well, that's all from me today. Thanks for joining me and hopefully I've given you inspiration for some love cards to make.

Have a lovely week and thank you for stopping by.
