More ho ho ho - let it snow!

Hey!

I'm back today with more Super FREE Saturday 'ho ho ho - let it snow'! If you missed the fun yesterday you can check it all HERE. If you download and use the kit I'd LOVE to see what you create so don't forget to add a link to your project in the link tool or email me a photo! 

For my first card today I broke away from snowflakes for one card and whipped this hybrid card up...

I used layers and my paint bucket tool to make this card and it's quite easy, I promise to do a little tutorial at some point this week to share some tips with you all.

Once I had printed my bauble panel I used the PTI Bottle Hanger Die to cut it out and just trimmed off the bottle hanging section. A splash of glitter on the baubles, some striped ribbon and a few rhinestones finished it off...

I couldn't stay away from the snowflakes for long...

This time I paired it with some Decorative Doilies - The Hands of Time snowflakes! There's plenty of glitter and sparkle on this card thats for sure...

I hope you've enjoyed today's projects and little video! I'm squeezing in a little inky time this morning to create some cards to share with you this coming week :) 

Have a good day & thank you for stopping by!

Hey!

Only today to wait & then the Sneak Peeks start! Yep, you heard me right this TIME tomorrow you will be getting the first sneak peeks at whats to come from Uniko Studio. Until then I have a card to share with you all ...

As I'm feeling Patriotic & supporting the British drivers at the British Formula 1 GP this weekend I decided to make another card using the ColourQ colours HERE. This time I used the current Clean & Simple sketch HERE. 

Looking at the card now it's on the screen there might be just a lil bit too much white space & I maybe should have used some of the bigger doilies from Decorative Doilies - The Hands of Time. This card also fits nicely into the Moxie FAB Thankyou Card Challenge, check it out HERE.

Thats all from me today, be sure to stop on by tomorrow for the first of the Sneak Peeks!

Sending Birthday Wishes

Hello!

I'm a little behind schedule today, but here I am! It's a rainy day here in the North East of the UK, perfect for being in The Studio making cards! 

Anyway, here is todays card ...

Today's card is super simple and uses Decorative Doilies - The Hands of Time paired with FONTiments - Birthday. I added loops of ribbon in Hawaiian Shores, Raspberry Fizz & Aqua Mist using matching buttons and ink!

Short & sweet from me today as there is lots to be done in The Studio! Thanks for stopping by today!

A bit of Rock & Roll ...

Happy Monday!

I hope you all had a lovely weekend, I'm back today with a few cards to brighten your day & which focus on another product that was released this weekend over on the Uniko Studio website HERE.

Today, I decided to focus on Decorative Doilies - The Hands of Time. The solid doilies in this set lend themselves beautifully for the technique 'Rock & Roll'.

Here is my first card ...

This colour combination of yellow, white & grey is still a favourite of mine. For the doilies on the bottom edge of the top mat layer I first masked off the top section with some post-it notes I then inked the stamp with SU! Summer Sun & then rolled the edges in SU! Pumpkin Pie. Repeating the process until the section was covered. 

I then used a Sizzix Circle Frameabilities die to die cut the circle before stamping the doily inside the die cut circle. The sentiment is from Extra Time and I part stamped the sentiment. A bit of satin ribbon (PTI Summer Sunrise) and a few rhinestones on the single doily & I was done!

I enjoyed the 'Rock & Roll' technique in these colours I had to make this following card ...

This time I used the slightly larger solid doily & kept it slightly off the matted square. The sentiment is from Fontiments - Birthday and I first inked it with the SU! Summer Sun ink then inked the top & bottom edges slightly with SU! Pumpkin Pie. This card has such a lovely Summer feeling to it! 

After these two cards I wasn't quiet done & had a few more ideas floating round my head so I have a couple more cards to share!

For this card I cut the panels and then laid them on my stamping area & stamped the doily in black Memento ink as I knew I wanted to colour them in with my Copic markers. It was a slow process to colour the doilies in as the stamp is fairly small but I love how it turned out!  I stamped the sentiments from Fontiments - Birthday, tied some white cord & added a matching coloured rhinestone to each doily to finish the card off. The panels are adhered to the card using foam adhesive.

For this last card I used the same doily as in the first card I showed today. I stamped and created a mask using some Eclipse masking paper. It was definitely a fussy slow cutout but I am really pleased with how it worked. I started off by stamping the pink doily & masking it before I stamped the blue & yellow doilies. I repeated the process in the lower left corner but decided to leave the pink off. 

Again, the sentiment is from Fontiments - Birthday. I kept the sentiment panel fairly simple & used the Ek Success punch in the same way as I did for the card HERE.

Well, thats all I have to share for you today and I hope it has given you a few ideas as to how this set can be used! I'll be back tomorrow focusing on another product released this month! 

Thanks for stopping by!
