CREATIVITY LIVES HERE: Uniko Studio Challenge #22

Friday, June 19, 2015

Hi! Welcome to the next Uniko Studio Challenge!

We are happy to have two special Guest Designers joining us for this challenge! Please check out Anita's and Melissa's blog if you aren't familiar with their work, and to see their projects for this challenge!

THEME: ANYTHING GOES WITH OPTIONAL
TWIST OF A MASCULINE CARD

You can use ANY stamps in the challenges
You can enter as many times as you want and enter as many other challenges as you want combined with ours!

Since Father's Day is only two days away, I definitely had to go with the optional masculine twist. I'm really happy with the way this one turned out! The sailboat is paper pieced using Simple Stories patterned paper. The boat is on a die cut panel from Top Dog Dies, with TDD waves overlapping. The background was repeatedly stamped using the compass from the Uniko Nautical Treasures set. Lastly, the sentiment is stamped on more SS patterned paper, which is die cut from another TDD die! I love the color combo on this, and it was so fun combining all these products together to create a fun Father's Day card!

I hope I brought some inspiration to you, and I would LOVE to see you create something for our challenge!!

You have until Friday, July 3rd, 2:00am CST, to link your card up on the Uniko Blog.
