So let's get to it. Here are my sample cards to showcase this fabulous release:
I'm kicking off with a combination of two sets from the new release and one older set all in my most favourite colours and with bling and sparkle too! Yahoo!
All the stamped images have been coated with Wink of Stella, so in real life are just dazzling.
Supplies:
Stamps: Uniko, Jingle Bells, Labeled Christmas, Background Builders Vines Winter Additions
Inks: Memento, grape jelly, lilac posies
Pen: Sakura Gelly Roll, silver
Embellishments: glitter paper & sequins from my stash; Wink of Stella, clear
My next card is all about what we all wish for at Christmas - a stack of presents to open!
I used gold embossing powder for the solid bows and sentiment.
Supplies:
Stamps: Uniko, Essentially Christmas
Inks: SU, cherry cobbler; Versamark
Embossing: Personal Impressions, mirror gold
Dies: Lawn Fawn, large stitched square stackables
And for my last card I inked up that I Love Coffee stamp set. I'm loving how easy it is to adapt this set to fit in with any theme, but then that's one of the many fabulous features of Uniko stamps - their wonderful versatility.
I masked off a strip on the base card before stamping the background border and then popped up the other elements with foam pads to add dimension.
Supplies:
Stamps: Uniko, I Love Coffee, Stunning Snowflakes
Inks: SU, early espresso, coastal cabana

I'm popping my last card into the challenge at ATCAS where they are celebrating their third birthday and want to see dimension.
Great fun having you visit my blog today, thank you. And keep crafting!
Love, love the Christmas ornaments on your first card - those colours are stunning, and I really like the shimmery paper. Fab pile of Christmas presents. And I do like the snowflake on the Christmas coffee cup - just perfect. Love them all! xxx

ReplyDeleteYou have been busy Jane, your first card matches to your blog header..I love embroidery so was very natural to get attracted to the header first...second one is lovely with all the presents, and I love the simple coffee cup, with beautiful colors.
ReplyDeleteJane, an array of cards that has planted a smile all over my face! The bells and jingle of the first is wonderfully eye-catching with your pretty pink/purples; the pyramid of wee gifts, sporting red and gold, so lovely; the coffee and mint of the third, striking. You've showcased to a "t" the beauty and versatility of this new release!
