June 2026 New Release Sneak Peeks

Hello & Happy Monday!

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

So let's get to the sneak peeks 😃

It might be no surprise, but I am a little bit obsessed with this style of Background Block! I couldn't resist bringing another one that is going to be an essential for everyones Uniko stash. 

This next peek is of something you might have seen some peeks of on social media. All I can say is from the feedback from those who have used it a recent Uniko Stamping Retreats is, your'e going to FLIPPIN' love it! 

I have a few obsessions and another is layering stencils. I think you'll love this new floral beauty. 

And lastly, but by no means least is another FLIPPIN' fun stencil combo. 

That wraps up the peeks and although it's small, all the products pack a punch and are so versatile. 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 BST Saturday 27th June.

A Warm Welcome 😃

Happy Wednesday.

I am delighted you have stopped by today as we are giving a warm welcome and introduction to our newest Brand Ambassador, Denise Morgans. I'm sure you are familiar with Denise's work around blog land and social media as she is on a few challenge design teams and is a frequent participant in previous Uniko Challenges here on the blog and an active member in the Uniko VIP Facebook Group. If not, I am passing you over to Denise for a little introduction....

Hi everyone, my name is Denise, and I live in a small town in South Wales, UK.  I have been paper crafting for as long as I can remember and started my blog in 2008. I was lucky enough to take early retirement a few years ago so enjoy crafting even more now that I have more free time. Crafting keeps me sane and I love making anything involving paper [cards, tags, ATCs, etc]!  I am still pinching myself at being asked to join this amazing team, as Bev says I've been a long-time lover of Uniko.  

Welcome Denise.

Here are a few of my recent favourite Uniko makes by Denise...

Stencil - Abstract Triangles 

Stencil - MOD Background Builder 

English Country Garden Butterflies 

Stencil - Layering Picked Posies 

Background Blocks Linear 

Flower Power #6

Now you can see why I am delighted to have Denise join us here at Uniko and I am sure you are all as excited as I am to see Denise in action, not long to wait as we have Release Week coming next week! 

I would love it if you would leave some welcoming comment love.

Until then, thank you for stopping by today.

Mid Century Monday

Happy Monday.

I love a fresh new week and although I am super exhausted after a long weekend of travel and being at Crafterama Kent, which was amazing by the way. I am excited for a brand new week of inspiration AND a fun announcement on Wednesday. 

Last week before I went to Crafterama Kent I needed to fill a couple if spaces on display boards and one space was on my Mid Century Modern board. Here is what I chose to ink up...

Mid Century Modern Wreath Builder came back in stock recently and it was a delight to ink it up again. This set is more geared towards Christmas, but I love showing how my products can be used all year round.

I chose a super fun and colourful design, but one which took lots of masking! Thank goodness for a stamping platform to achieve a colourful look like this! 

This card made me happy when I'd finished stamping, so that's why I chose this sentiment and I completed the look with a sparkly bow.

That's all I have to share today, have a wonderful Monday.

Stencil Sunday - Doodle Flowers

Happy Stencil Sunday.

It seems like all I have said this week is, it's been a while since I. And Stencil Sunday is another post I feel I haven't done for SO long.

I am back today with a stencil feature.

This month in the Uniko VIP Facebook Group, the challenge is to ink up those stencils. I chose the Stencil - Doodle Flower. 

I've not inked this stencil up for ages and it was so much fun. I used Honeysuckle, Poppy and Marmalade for my colours and for my sentiment I used a varierty from the coordinating Doodle Flowers clear stamp set.

That's all from me today, but I will be back with more to share tomorrow.

Floral Friday - Flower Power

Happy FriYAY!

Today I have a couple of Flower Power cards to share with you. I decided to do a display board for shows that showcased just Flower Power stamps and I needed a couple more. 

First I inked up Flower Power #1 to make this clean and simple card.

I used Buttercup for the flower and then added some Honeycomb using a dauber for the centre giving it a fun two tone look. I then used the coordinating Flower Power Designer Dies to cut it out.

The stem and leaved, plus the sentiment I stamped onto a arch die cut, I used Spellbinders Essential Arch dies. I then thought it needed a little something else so added the trio of flowers stamped in Honeysuckle to the lower right corner of my base card.

Next up I inked up Flower Power #5. 

This one has just come back in stock after a spell of being MIA, so it was nice to give this one some inky love again. 

Again I used the coordinating Flower Power Designer Dies that match Flower Power 1 - 6. I then coloured with some Stampin' Up! Blends. Another bright and cheerful design. 

Thanks for stopping by today and hope to see some of you at Crafterama Kent tomorrow.

Throwback Kindness 🌸

Happy Throwback Thursday. 

This week I've been busy prepping for Crafterama Kent and I gave the Uniko display boards a little refresh. I was looking through card samples and came across these two using Kindness Blooms.

I remember making this one where I stepped out of my comfort zone with some water colouring. And this card has sparked some creative mojo.

And here is the second card I found. 

This card was actually inspired by a card I made using different, now retired products and it's an unusual colour combination for me when using flowers.

I'm looking forward to making time to create some new cards using this stamp set, hopefully it'll be soon! 

That's all from me today, but be sure to check out the VIP Facebook group for the latest challenge.
