Pink + Flowers + Glitter = Awesome!

Hey!

Yet another lovely & inspiring day spent with like minded creatives today at the CCAD (Cleveland College of Art & Design) Alumni event. I had the opportunity to meet up with a few fellow graduates from 2011 and also make a few new contacts as well as mooching round the college getting inspiration from the current students. 

Today's card though was inspired by the current Runway Inspired challenge HERE & below... 




The challenge was perfect for me to break out my NEW Cosmic Shimmer Polished Silk Silver Glitter which I treat myself to on Saturday! Here's how I've used it...




I was inspired by Sue a valued customer of Uniko Studio to dust off my older & much loved Uniko Studio stamp sets to make this card. Sue's BLOG has tons of inspiration & beautiful projects so be sure to pop by. I'll be sharing some of Sue's more recent projects here on the blog tomorrow.

Here's a close up of that shimmery glitter...




In other exciting news, I've got some lovely students soon to be graduates lined up for work placements once they've handed in their final projects. The first is Abbey who has a lovely Facebook page HERE. Abbey will be coming for a work placement in May which is FAB, I might just get a few more things achieved with an extra pair of hands in the studio! 

Then in June I have another Abbie lined up for a work placement, which is just fabulous! Abbie has  an interesting Tumblr site HERE which is full of inspiration. With all this help Uniko Studio might just achieve a few more 2013 goals!! 

Ok, that's all from me today, I rambled on excitedly a bit too much! Thanks for stopping by though it's much appreciated.

A Multitude of Doilies!

Hey!

Today I have another card set to show you ...




Again this card took me less than 10 minutes to make so I made a whole batch to put together as a gift set. I'm trying to get a few products together for Designers Marketplace in December. It seems ages away but I know it'll creep up on me if I don't start doing the odd thing! 

Here's a close up ...




Using a neutral colour scheme I paired various doilies from The Hands Of Time - Decorative Doilies and paired them with sentiments from Time and Extra Time. A simple button tied with jute finished the sentiment panel off.

Here's the set ...




I've just the insides to finish which will be a kraft mat layer left blank and then the packaging to make them presentable! 

That's all from me today, thanks for stopping by!
Hugs

A Card For Any Occasion

Hello & Happy Monday!

How are we all? Ready for a NEW week? I'm still catching up with jobs this week, though my schedule is a little less busy so I might just get caught up on scheduling some blog posts at the regular time! 

Anyhow, I'm here today to share a card that can be used for any occasion ...




For this card I used the current Retro Sketch HERE and seen below. I had the TIME stamp set on my desk from my last card so decided to make a girly graphic flower card in a fresh colour combination. I added some buttons for good measure to the flower centres which fits nicely into the DYSU (Do Yo Stack Up) challenge of buttons HERE.




I added some extra bling by heat embossing the dots on the mat panel, here's a close up ...




It's much more sparkly IRL, promise! So that's all from me today, have a lovely day & thanks for stopping by.
Hugs
