Although
it's fun to try out different techniques, use die cuts and multi media
with Uniko stamps we don't always have the time and Uniko stamps look
just as stunning when simply stamped. So that's why I'm calling this
post 'Stamp and Go!' Because sometimes that's just what you want!
A
fun way to say hello to someone and brighten their day using just three
colours of ink and two Uniko stamp sets - what could be simpler than
that? Stamping off the edge is a great way to add extra stamping without
spoiling the CAS look of a card.
Supplies:
Stamps: Uniko, Fun Flowers & Simply Said Blocks
Inks: SU, daffodil delight, tempting turquoise, melon mambo
Well how about two ink colours and two Uniko stamp sets?
By
using an ink pad with multiple colours it's easy to achieve a hand
coloured look. And doesn't that Pure Florals Gerbera look totally
amazing showcased on its own?
Supplies:
Stamps: Uniko, Pure Florals Gerbera & Simply Said Blocks
Inks: Kaleidacolor, desert heat; Memento, tuxedo black
Keeping
a similar theme going my last card uses two ink pads and two Uniko
stamp sets again. The multi coloured stripes are so easy to achieve
using a Kaleidacolor pad, but a similar look could be achieved by using
two ink pads and overlapping them in the middle. The Simply Said Blocks
were simply stamped on top - bit of a favourite go to greeting set.
I'm
thinking this card could be used for Valentines Day and as it's so
quick to create you could be a big tease and send several!
Supplies:
Stamps: Uniko, Background Blocks Horizontal Stripe & Simply Said Blocks
Inks: Kaleidacolor, baby powder; Memento, tuxedo black
Thank
you so much for looking at my ideas for Stamp and Go cards using Uniko
stamps. I hope I may have sparked an idea to get you in the creating
mood. And as always keep crafting!
Great quick and CAS cards. I particularly love the last one.

ReplyDeleteI like your style Jane and need to get into the 'stamp and go' frame of mind. You've certainly shown how these stamps don't need a lot to showcase themselves. Brilliant ideas, inspiration and colours. Thanks so much x
ReplyDeleteThese are so sweet.
