You're Going to Flip - Ink & Flip Christmas Star Revisited

Hello & Welcome to You're Going to Flip Week! 

If you missed what this is all about and the sneak peek, be sure to check out yesterdays post HERE. Today we a starting with a revisit and giving fresh inky love to the very first Ink & Flip stencil I designed and released back in July 2023, Ink & Flip Christmas Star.

I called it Christmas Star as it 'fell in' with the Christmas release! But really, this design can be used all year round and is especially great for those masculine cards. 

If you've never seen the Ink & Flip Christmas Star in action before, or you need a reminder, be sure to check out my video over HERE on Uniko's YouTube channel.

And be sure to hop along and see all the new wonderful inspiration from the team...

Welcome to, You're going to Flip Week & a Sneak Peek!

Hello, happy Monday and welcome to, You're Going To Flip Week! 

Myself and the Brand Ambassadors are doing things a little different this week. Mainly because I am a little 'off' schedule with a spell of poorly Beans, poorly husband's working from home and taking over the studio, the start of craft shows and then two weeks Easter holidays, I didn't want to rush a bigger release, but I didn't want to wait to bring you this either. 

This week on the blog leading up to Saturday when this NEW Ink & Flip layering stencil is available, we will be revisiting all the previously released Ink & Flip Stencils in turn each day with lots of inspiration on how to use these stencils. 

Hence, the naming of this week, You're Going to Flip Week! 

Let's have a look at the sneak peek...

I just love starting the week with a sneak peek 😃 and I think you might just flip 😉 when you see this in action in a few days. I hope you will join us this week for the fun and don't worry, there are new stamps on the way in May!

Brand Ambassador Inspiration: Background Block MOD Builder stamp and stencil cards

 Hello friends!

Happy Monday!

Vinita here showcasing the beautiful stamp and stencil: Background Block MOD Builder! 

Missed last month's new product release as my package was stuck at the Customs Deptt. But finally, the package has arrived, happy me!!!!

Card 1

This Background Block MOD Builder stamp totally amazed me with its pattern block, so many possibilities. Do you agree with me!!!

I created a Masculine style card in grey tones! 

I started with a whole block from the upper side on a white panel and then the lower side using archival jet black ink. Then I filled the Neutral grey color using a Copic Marker in the whole pattern. I adhered that patterned panel to the black base card. Added another white panel with a sentiment I Miss You from the Just Because stamp set. Simply finished it off with some black pearls.

Card 2

The next card showcases the Background Block Mod Builder stencil with the same pattern in multicolored spring gardening. I used only the centre part of the stencil.

The repeating pattern makes it perfect. I used different Distress inks to create the pattern and cut the panel from the centre. The sentiment is from the Just Because stamp set and is finished with a few white pearls in the centre of the flowers.

Working with these two was so much fun!

Happy crafting!

Brand Ambassador Inspiration - 3 Stamp Sets 1 One-Layer Card

Good morning, Anita here.

I'm back with some Brand Ambassador Inspiration today.

I was recently tasked with making an 18th birthday card for my godson and masculine cards are the kind I find the most difficult, so to make one for an older teenager was even more daunting!  I had a rummage through my Uniko stash and decided to combine three stamp sets: Big & Bold Happy, Background Blocks Halftone and Explosion!

And other than the number dies I adhered, this is a completely flat, one layer card with all the elements stamped directly on the card base.

I began by stamping the explosion in orange ink and then created a mask to protect it while stamping other elements.  I stamped the "happy" in blue/grey ink and then the halftone images in olive green and berry shades.  I removed the mask before stamping "birthday" in black and finished the card by adhering the die cut numbers.  All inks I used here are Altenew and the dies are from Spellbinders.

I was really pleased with how this one turned out and I hope this gives you some inspiration for those trickier masculine designs.

Enjoy the rest of your week, and with the Easter weekend approaching we are already past the halfway point of the working week.  Mustn't grumble, eh!  I hope you have some lovely plans for the long weekend.
