BA inspirations cards: Love

 Hello everyone!

Happy Monday!

Today I am on the Uniko blog with two projects to share using some goodies from UNIKO! I had fun playing around with them. As you all know Valentine's Day is approaching soon.

First up I got all rainbow inky stripes paired with Love!

The Big & Bold love stamp set features a beautiful bold Love word accompanied by some accent images and sentiments and I paired it with Background Blocks Horizontal stripes and Pinstripes stamp set.

These rainbow theme stripes match and show off the fun striped heart image.




Firstly I inked my horizontal stripe image using some newly radiant neon inks set of 4 and I love the result. Then I purposefully stamped the pinstripe look on these stripes. I inked my striped heart and fussy cut it. Then I stamped bold love sentiment along with accompanying sentiment All my. 


For the next card, I combined Decorative doilies digital paper with scattered heart images in a soft radiant neon color.




Firstly I used all 3 sizes of the smaller hearts from the same set. I colored the largest small heart using my blue ZIG watercolour brush pen.
I created a pocket using the decorative doilies paper print. The love sentiment is hand-cut using berry wine pigment ink accompanied by always sentiment. I popped up the pocket above the scattered hearts. I also added some iridescent hearts for more interest.
That's just where my creativity flows! Hope, I inspired you to make some Valentine's cards for your loved ones!

Happy crafting!

Snow much fun!

 Hello everyone!

Happy Thursday!

January is the month of reflection, new beginnings, new experiences in life, fresh starts and much more! We believe a life is full of play, laughter and adventure like we always say, caffinate and recreate!

One of the best ways to get out is to enjoy the winter with a sip of cocoa in this wonderful winter season enjoying snow. So grab a cup of coffee ☕️ and enjoy the new beginning of this New Year 😀

Here is my winter art journal scene with mountains, trees, falling snow, adventure, city life, coffee shop with lots of adventure!


Firstly I inked my page using distress ink to create a sky scene background.


Die cut some Christmas trees and a frame, inked them and added some snow paste for textures as shown in the below pic.

Beautiful Blooms I : stamp and dies non release blog hop

 Hello everyone!

Happy Thursday!

This year we are giving some love to older Uniko products with a giveaway and Brand Ambassador Blog hop as you all know I love all Uniko products so much!!

I have some fun cards to share for revisiting blog hop showcasing Beautiful Blooms I stamp and die set from Uniko! I am using this set first time and falling in love with it!!

Let's get started!

First card




I love these beautiful blooms I set, so versatile. I used my favourite Designer paper Collection from Uniko. 
Using the Floating Strips technique I created a window sheet circle first. I cut the strips of designer paper according to my needs and adhered it to my window die-cut circle, so easy and quick, possibilities are endless! 




Stamped the images on a white textured CS using Altenew Cherry Blossom ink set and Green Meadows set. Made a window sheet circle as shown in the above pic. It's fun, fast and easy, and will give the card a WOW factor!




The sentiment is from the Spring Botanical Crocus stamp set along with some tiny liquid pearl dots.

Second card



I just love this solid flower stamp image with leaves.  I started with stamping the background blocks linear image using walnut stain DO. Stamped one of the floral images and leaves using carved pumpkin, rustic wilderness, crushed olive DO and die-cut them using coordinating dies.  I layered up the floral image along with leaves. It helped the card so quick and simply added so much detail! I finished the card with a "because you are amazing" sentiment from the Just Because stamp set and some tiny liquid pearl dots.

Leave a comment on all the Ambassadors' blogs before Midnight GMT on Thursday 25th Jan'24 and one lucky winner will receive a £15 eGift Code to spend in the store!
