My first card uses both of the stamp sets in today's introduction and - a first for me - a video clip of how I created it. I shall be interested to see if that works!!
It's a bright happy card and I'm loving all the little details on the confetti stamp.
So with a bit of turning and the use of the misti tool I stamped the block in three different colours. Then I added a horizontal strip with HAPPY stamped on it and stamped and handcut round the shape of the 'birthday' sentiment on white card.
I was inspired by Crystal's card and think this new Uniko Background Block is perfect for this technique.
Supplies:
Stamps: Uniko, Birthday Sentiments, Background Blocks Party Confetti
Inks: SU, melon mambo, tempting turquoise, daffodil delight; Memento, tuxedo black
My second sample also uses these two stamp sets and is a cute little tag.
I've tried to get away from my usual colours and given grey and mustard a whirl. And I'm thinking this tag would go really well with a gift that contains a way to fulfil that greeting!
Supplies:
Stamps: Uniko, Birthday Sentiments, Background Blocks Party Confetti
Inks: SU, crushed curry; Versamark +Ranger superfine white embossing powder
Dies: MFT Die-namics, stitched traditional tags; Lil'inker, stitched mats rectangles
Ribbon & twine from my stash
Now I couldn't finish this introductory post without adding a card using the new Balloon Bash stencil could I?
Totally fabulous to use and such an easy card to create and you know I love balloons!
Stencil: Uniko, Balloon Bash
Inks: Ranger distress oxide, twisted citron, peacock feathers, salty ocean; Memento, tuxedo black
Pens: Sakura gelly roll, white; Uniball Micro, black
Thanks for looking today, your visit has been very much appreciated.
