Carol here! Welcome to my Uniko Studio DT showcase, where I bring out a few Uniko favourites for a play date.
I'm sure we've all had the 'lost mojo' experience and seek various ways to end the start-something/give up cycle. When this happens to me, I 'challenge myself a challenge' - a creativity re-boot - which is precisely what I've done with the trio of cards I'm sharing here.
My challenge:
- focus on one key die/stamp combination: English Country Garden Butterfly Collection
- use a limited palette: black/white + green (inspired by the image at TIME OUT Challenge #144, which you can see here)
- use one 6 x 6 sheet of designer paper (sometimes we need to use that stash *grin*). I selected a various shades of green sheet from Pinkfresh Studio
- one occasion: Thanks (sparked by our upcoming Canadian Thanksgiving, but shifting from fall colours/images)
- three cards, inspired by at least two/three challenges (TIME OUT Challenge #144, Freshly Made Sketches #403, CAS(E) this Sketch #340). I've missed entering in a couple, but that's okay...it's the 'doing' that counts!
- go CAS!
So...here are my results:
Card 1:
Small butterfly from English Country Garden Butterfly Collection
Sentiment from All Occasion Sentiments
Inspired by CAS(E) this Sketch #340);
Card 2:
Large butterfly from English Country Garden Butterfly Collection
Sentiment from Simply Said
Inspired by Freshly Made Sketches #403
Card 3:
Large butterfly die only from English Country Garden Butterfly Collection
Sentiment from Simply Said
Background from Tropical Paradise
Inspired by: me *grin*
I'd love to know how you re-boot your creativity!
Thank you for dropping by!
