Introducing... Ink & Flip Triangulate

Hello & Happy Wednesday.

Welcome to Day 2 of the Uniko June 2026 Release product introductions. Today myself and the Uniko Brand Ambassadors are introducing the next addition to the unique Ink & Flip Stencil range. If you've not heard or used of these stencils before I recommend checking out videos over on the Uniko YouTube Channel.

But today, I introduce you to Ink & Flip Triangulate...

The more I use and see others use this stencil, the more creative possibilities are shown. The team have done just that, thinking of ways to use it along with striking colour combos. 

Thank you for joining us today and I hope you come back tomorrow for the next product introduction. All the products being introduced will be available at 9am BST Saturday 27th June.

DT Inspiration - Playing with Background Builders Stars & Triangles

Hello there, it's Sarah P here and massive apologies as I seem to have been AWOL for the whole of summer BUT at last I'm here with another DT Inspiration post.

Whenever I've not been crafting in a while I struggle to focus; not knowing where to start ... do you have that issue?

My preferred option for getting back into it is to pick up a couple of stamp sets and ink colours that I love and jump right in. That's what I've done with these!!!

I hope you like them!

My GO TO stamp sets were the Background Builders Triangulate, Background Builders Seeing Stars, the latest Sentiments Outlined set, released in July plus another of my favourite sentiment sets; Birthday Wishes.

Up first with my stars trio, just basic stamping with a masked area, on these first 2 to insert the sentiment, and to finish a couple of enamel dots ...

Then having created the stars one in the colour combo above, using promarkers I decided I'd carry the colour scheme through with my triangles!

I do hope you like my cards and I'd love to know how you get back into a creative frame of mind following a break.

Thanks for calling by and catch you again soon.

CAS Colours & Sketches #242 - Sketch

Hey!

It's time for this weeks challenge over at CAS Colours & Sketches. This month Fiona is our hostess and this week Fiona has a fun sketch HERE to inspire your creativity...

Here is what I came up with...

When I design Uniko clear stamps, I always 'try' to think about how they will work with other previously released Uniko clear stamps to maximise their potential. 

When I designed the recently released Reach For The Stars set I had Sweet Baby set in mind to pair it with and todays sketch gave me the inspiration and opportunity to do this :)

I was also inspired by the current challenge over at The Card Concept seen HERE and below, which was to use pastel shades. 

I also drew inspiration from the pattern on the cushion and incorporated the use of Background Builders: Triangulate on my card too. 

That's all from me today using the sketch, but if you need some more inspiration using the sketch be sure to pop by the CAS Colours & Sketches blog HERE and see how the DT and Guest Designer have used it.

Thanks for stopping by today.

CAS Colours & Sketches #168

Hey!

It's time for a new challenge over at CAS Colours & Sketches, with a new month comes a new hostess too. This month the lovely Louise is hosting the challenges and starting them off with this lovely colour combo...

Isn't that a lovely combination of bright and cheery colours? So many wonderful options as to how to use them too! 

This is how I have used them...

With a colour combo like this I would normally reach for florals, but I have been wanting to use Background Builders: Triangulate for some time now and I was inspired to do so for my card today :)

I started by marking the centre of my CS panel using a pencil down the middle and again about 5 cm horizontally. This helped me to keep the stamped triangles straight and evenly spaced. I started with the middle triangle and stamped outwards in both directions. 

The sentiment is from Simply Said and I added some SU! It's My Party Enamel Dots to embellish the card before adhering the stamped panel to the white card base using foam adhesive.

A very clean & simple card, just the way I like it! Anyway, be sure to head on over HERE to join in on the challenge & be inspired by the rest of the CC&S Design Team.

Thanks for stopping by & I hope to see you in the gallery :)

All Occasion Sentiments #6 £4.95

As per customer request the next addition to the All Occasion Sentiment series is here! Though we don't celebrate Thanksgiving here in the UK, I opted for an Autumnal kind of feel to the set with the large outlined THANKS and added in a few other popular sentiments I've seen around the paper crafting industry. 

Background Builders: Triangulate £9.95

Geometrics & tribal patterns are still a huge trend within the paper crafting industry, so I got designing and created my own version, Triangulate. This set is very similar to the previously released Background Builders: Round In Circles & Background Builders: Squared, adding more stamping mix & match possibilities.

Natures Treasures II £4.95

Last up we have Natures Treasures II, the next in the series with a variety of leaves & foliage. This addition to the Natures Treasure series came about as I LOVE to add leaves to a cluster of flowers on a CAS card. I also LOVE making my supplies & stamps stretch without braking the bank! 

This set has a nifty feature in that the single leaves from Beautiful Blooms II and Flower Power #6 coordinate with the larger leaves in this set for EVEN MORE possibilities.

Now I have done all the formal introductions, how about a card showcasing these new sets...

I am showcasing my LOVE of adding leaves to a cluster of flowers as I said above! I was inspired by the current TIME OUT Challenges CASE with your own twist challenge seen HERE. This fortnight they are CASEing the awesomely talented and lovely Tracey from In My Creative Opinion. 

This is the card to CASE, isn't it amazing & scream out to you CASE me?! 

I started by stamping the 2 larger leaves from Natures Treasures II along with the rose from Flower Power #6 in a trio of pastel shades of VersaMagic inks, Thatched Straw, Pink Grapefruit & Aquatic Splash, I then fussy cut them out.

The leaves are adhered to the white card base using DST and the roses foam adhesive. The sentiment is from the NEW All Occasion Sentiments #6.

That's all from me, but as tradition holds we have our release day blog hop, simply visit & comment along the hop by midnight Saturday 26th September, to be in the chance of winning the ENTIRE release! If you have already purchased any or all of the release a refund will be given.

Introducing...Background Builders: Triangulate

Hey!

Welcome back to the next product introduction, here is a little reminder of the Sneak Peek I shared the other day...

So the title of this set kinda gives it away really and you have an idea what's in store, though along with its geometric qualities it also has a tribal feel to it. Both of which are still on trend within the paper crafting world.

How about a card to show you a little of what this set has in store...

My card today was inspired by THIS cushion I pinned on Pinterest, isn't it just lovely...

Original Source

Along with stamps from Background Builders: Triangulate I also used Background Builders: Squared. I added another of the sentiments from All Occasion Sentiments #6 too and fussy cut them out, adhering the beautiful with foam adhesive.

That's all from me today, but I know the DT have some FABulous projects to share with you so be sure to hop along to their blogs and leave some love...
