Good morning!
Today marks the start of Uniko's 13th Birthday celebrations. There will be lots of inspiration throughout the whole of February so we would love for you to join us throughout the month.
We are starting today with a Birthday Card Linky Party. All you need to do to join in is create a birthday card using any Uniko products (current, retired or digital) and link up in the linky over on the Uniko blog post. See below for more info.
For my birthday card I've used stamps from two Uniko stamp sets - Up & Away and Sunshine & Rainbows...
On a die cut panel I began by stamping the balloon and basket from the Up & Away set and then masking then off so I could then ink blend the background. I blended from the top, gradually fading out the blue sky. With the masks still in place I then stamped the clouds from the Sunshine & Rainbows set using white pigment ink. I removed the masks and coloured the balloon with Copics before stamping the sentiments in black ink. The panel was then adhered flat to the card base.
Materials used:
- Stamps: Uniko - Up & Away, Sunshine & Rainbows
- Ink: Altenew - Caribbean Sky; Memento - Tuxedo Black; Hero Arts - Unicorn; Versafine Clair - Nocturne
- Coloured with Copics
- Dies: Create a Smile - Cool Cuts Double Stitched Rectangles
