Introducing... Originally Organic Additions Designer Dies

Hey!

Welcome to day 6 of the May 2018 Release product introductions!

I am super excited about today as the product we are introducing is some NEW matching Designer Dies to a previously released and popular Uniko clear stamp set. I love matching dies, they provide so many more techniques and ways to stretch your stamps.

Being a very small business, the cost of adding new dies to the inventory is huge. They are manufactured in the USA and like most imports there is added costs to receiving these. Anyway, I feel Uniko has grown a little over the past few months and with having a stand at Happy Stampers Festival & Stamp Magic I felt the time was right to add more! Ido plan on adding more coordinating and stand alone dies more frequently (fingers crossed) in the near future.

OK, so let's see these dies and the clear stamp set they match...






So many fun possibilities with these dies and clear stamp set now ;) And one of my favourite cards to make is shaker cards!

So here's one I made to test the dies out as soon as they landed in the studio...



The Designer Die Originally Organic Additions Collection contains 7 dies. One to cut out the inside of the heart, which I have used on this card to create the shaker. One to cut the outside of the heart, so this gives you the option to die cut both the inside and out or one or the other! Plus, there are 5 other dies to die cut the tiny flowers and leaf sprigs in the clear stamp set.



 I used some lovely Altenew soft pastel ink colours for my flowers and to stamp the wreath, the shaker mix is from Stampin' Up!. I added a few tiny drops of White Blizzard Nuvo Drops, but they are hard to see in the photo as they are tiny! 

That's all I have to share here, but there is plenty of inspiration from our Guest Designer & Design Team.

NEW Originally Organic Designer Dies!

Hey!

Now if you follow me on Social Media and your are signed up for the Uniko Newsletter (sign up located at the lower right of the website homepage), then you will already know about these NEW Designer Dies available NOW on the website HERE

Ever since the Originally Organic Designer Dies landed on my desk I have been itching to give them a proper test run ;) Luckily tonight the beans were playing ball and fell asleep with hardly any messing around! 

Here's how I decided to use them...




One of my favourite images from the Originally Organic clear stamp set is this swirly foliage and the NEW matching die has made me fall in love a little bit more! 

I think what I love most about this stamp is the delicacy and elegance it has with the swirls. The matching die is simply fabulous and keeps these details perfectly once die cut. 




I started by die cutting the image partially overlapping my mat layer, making sure to keep hold of all the pieces. 

I then placed my die cut layer and base card inside my MISTI stamping tool, placing the corresponding stamp in place to then stamp the image in Altenew Industrial Diamond ink. I then used a small selection of Copic Markers to colour the image. 

Once I had finished colouring and stamped the sentiment I adhered the die cut layer using foam adhesive, making sure to piece together and adhere the smaller pieces.

This is all I have to share tonight using these new dies, but I can assure you that you WILL be seeing more of these dies in action over the coming days too! 

Until then, thank you for stopping by this evening.
