Today is the final day of introduction posts before Uniko's August stamp release is available for purchase. The two sets that we are showcasing today are a further addition to the fab Big and Bold series and a beautiful Framed Floral.
I have a few cards to share with you today:
The large sentiment makes a great focal point and here I have simply paired it with a row of hexagons from yesterday's Background Builders set to make a one layer card.
Here I have cut the sentiment out and adhered it over a background that I have made by using texture paste through my Messy Rainbows stencil and inking it with distress inks.
I have coloured in the Floral Frame with pencils and used a touch of clear sparkle pen over the flowers. The sentiment is from Block Sentiments and the image is matted over a base which I have stencilled with my Forest Foliage design.
Finally I made an inky design by blending distress inks, splattering with water and stamping the frame over the top. The Floral frame was then matted on to a card base which had been inked in the same colour.
I hope you like these cards and check out the rest of the inspiration that the DT have for you over at the Uniko blog. We will be back tomorrow with a release day blog hop so I shall see you then :)
