Introducing... Background Builders Christmas

Hey!

Thank you for all your lovely comments yesterday both here on the blog and on Facebook, it makes me happy that it's not just me & the DT that are excited about the release!! I'm also super happy that you've stopped by for the next product introduction. Today I am introducing Background Builders: Christmas...

It wouldn't be a Christmas release without a background builder set! This set features eight background building strips, you caught a peek at two of them on yesterdays post HERE and here are another two on this first card.

I've one more card to share today using another one of the stamps contained in the set & I went a little super CAS for this card!

A simple sentiment strip & some sparkly coloured trees! Below is a closer look at the detail...

Both the cards I've shared today are a perfect fit for the current 'Less is More' challenge HERE whose theme is TREES! 

Aimes & Taheerah are joining me again with todays introduction, so be sure to check out their blogs for more inspiration & see how they've used the set...

This set along with all the products I'm introducing this week will be available to purchase HERE on Saturday 26th October at 9 am

Introducing... All Occasion Sentiments #4

Hey & Happy Monday!

It's an exciting week here in the studio as each day I get to introduce one or two of the new products being released on Saturday :) 

Todays product is the next in the line up of those large focal sentiments contained in All Occasion Sentiments #4...

I decided to use the 'Merry & Bright' sentiment which I'd shown you in the sneak peek the other day. Each of the words & ampersand come as separate stamps, making it easier for different combinations & layouts.

This card also gives you a peek at two of the building stamps from Background Builders: Christmas which you will get a introduction to later in the week. It just pairs so nicely with the 'Merry & Bright' sentiment from the set I'm introducing today!

Short & sweet from me today, but I also have Aimes & Taheerah joining me with the introductions today, so be sure to stop on by their blogs...

Autumn Leaves

Hey!

Sorry for the MIA yesterday, I've been feeling a little under the weather and didn't have any mojo to create. I've found a little spark of mojo today however to create this Autumnal card...

As much as I have been enjoying making Christmas cards & love the holiday season, I just as much love the colours of Autumn. This card uses just one stamp set, Natures Treasures 1 and I left it without a sentiment so that it could be used for any occasion.

That's all from me today, I'm going to rest up a little more this afternoon as tomorrow is going to be a busy one as I prepare the new stamping goodies in the studio for release day! Ren-Yi will be back tomorrow to announce the winners of Uniko Studio Challenge #3 so be sure to stop by.

Thank you for stopping by today :)
