[Uniko Studio Challenge] No. 13 - Special Occasions

* This is my 2nd post of the day, the Surprise Bridal Shower for Ren-Yi HERE & my "Get to Know Me' Blog Hop HERE*

Hello Uniko Fans - we are back with a new challenge.


We ALL loved seeing the BUMPER amount of entries we had for our last challenge & we look forward to seeing your entries for this one :) To help get your mojo flowing & increase the number of entries I have 'bumped' up the prizes (seems appropriate with the size of my bump at the moment, not long now!).

The Prizes:
  • A £20 Gift Certificate to the Winner & Guest Design Team spot on the blog for the next challenge
  • Top Three Spotlight & £5 Gift Certificate 

Guest Designers are still welcome to join in on the current challenge too :) 




The Challenge this month is another easy one:

'Special Occasions'


The special occasion could be anything from a Birthday, to a Baby Congratulations or to a Wedding Card to name but a few examples, the options are endless and everyone interprets challenge words differently, but that's part of the fun and creativity! 

I decided to make a couple of cards...




First up is a Wedding card, mainly because I had them on the brain making a Wedding card for DT member Ren-Yi, who gets married in a couple of days. We're having a virtual Bridal Shower HERE if you want to join in & make a card :)

I was also inspired by the current Fusion Card Challenge inspiration photo seen HERE and below, but decided to keep my colours softer, but I was more inspired by the florals! 




Here's a close up of the detail & sentiment...




I've combined a sentiment from Flower Power #3 with the flowers and leaves from Flower Power #6.

Next I have a baby card to share as that is another thing that is on my mind. Two weeks today I will be going in to be induced and finally get to meet the double trouble I've been carrying for the past 7 1/2 months! 




I really enjoyed using the sketch HERE  and below from Freshly Made Sketches on THIS card the other day, that I had to have another 'play'!






All the supplies I have used are listed at the bottom of the post :) Let's see how the Design Team went with the 'Special Occasions' challenge:

  3. I love how your wedding card flowers frame the sentiment. The touch of dimension is perfect too (thanks for playing with us at Fusion). And your baby card...could it be any sweeter? Adorable!
