Uniko Introducing - Nature's Treasures II

Hello!

Today is the final introducing post before you can get your hands on the fabulous September release from Uniko!  We are featuring Nature's Treasures II - a set of leafy goodness which will work with so many of your other stamps. 

Friday is also the beginning of our September challenge at Uniko with the theme of Autumn/Fall with the optional twist of Thanks.  With that in mind I used lots of autumn colours on this first card using Nature's Treasures II:

 
I white embossed the leaves and inked over in a range of distress inks.  The sentiment is from All Occasion Sentiments #6 white embossed on dark brown card and I added a few lines of stitching to add to the rustic feel.
 
Next up I created a lighter card using clusters of the leaves stamped on a white card base in different greens and topped with a gold embossed sentiment from All Occasion Sentiments #6.



This set will be one that I get lots of use out of as the leaves provide a perfect accent to floral images and are big enough to be a focal point on their own too :)  Here is the full set:


The 3 stamp sets in Uniko's September release will be available for sale tomorrow and I hope you will pop by as the DT will be sharing more inspiration as part of a blog hop with prizes.  You can see more fabulous designs from the DT using Nature's Treasures II today over on the Uniko blog.

Thanks for stopping by,
