Sparkly Hummingbird

Hey & Happy Monday!

Another weekend has flown by and I really don't know where the time is going! Sunday saw me at 29 weeks pregnant and I thought I'd share a selfie I took on Saturday morning...


I'm getting quite a large bump now & things are getting quite awkward at times! Today I have been totally wiped out, I was only up 3 hours before I needed a nap and I hadn't really done anything to wear myself out. Hence my lateness in creating a card & posting today...




I made this simple sparkly hummingbird card this evening. The bright colours have certainly lifted my spirits and energy levels slightly. I chose to work with the Paradise - Hummingbird stamp set as I feel it has been some what neglected since it's release & I decided to pair it with Background Builders: Chevrons which has also seen some neglect! 




This creation fits perfectly into the "Just Us Girls" challenge seen HERE. It's been AGES since I joined in with the challenges over there and they've changed the layout a little. This week your creation is inspired by words and the word is BIRD.




That's all from me today, I think it'll be an early night and hopefully I'll have a bit more energy tomorrow to accomplish a few tasks in the studio! Until then, thank you for stopping by today :)

Supplies

Celebrate!

Hey!

Yesterday was a FABulous day here at Uniko Studio as I got to introduce my newest DT and Digital DT members :) If you missed it you can catch up on the news HERE. I also had a wonderful day getting inky and making lots of projects to share with you all over the next few days.

As I was in a celebratory mood yesterday the card I'm sharing with you reflects just how I was feeling...




I started off with a colour combination which I found on a new to me challenge blog HERE called Just Us Girls. Their current challenge is this colour combo seen HERE and below...




I kept my card neutral using the white & grey with just a splash of each of the 3 colours. I combined 3 Uniko Studio Clear Stamp sets on this card, Decorative Doilies - The Hands of Time, Background Builders - Lattice and FONTiments - Birthday. 

Instead of fussy cutting out the doilies I used a 1 3/4" circle punch for the larger doily and a 1" circle punch for the smaller doily...




That's all from me today, I'm spending a bit more inky time in The Studio this morning before dinner and I've a few orders to pick and pack for posting on Monday so I best get to it if I'm going to get done what I intend to.

I hope you all have a lovely day, thanks for stopping by.
Hugs
