Uniko June DT Blog Hop!

Hello crafty friends!

It's that time again for a Uniko Design Team Blog Hop to celebrate another NEW RELEASE from UNIKO!! In case you missed it, there were 2 BRAND NEW stamp sets released on June 11th! Today will be filled with lots of fun and inspiration from the entire Uniko DT. The two sets are already AVAILABLE TO PURCHASE on the Uniko website!

So here are the two sets in case you missed it...

The first card uses a combination of both sets. I started off by stamping the large leaves from Paradise Leaves around the edges of the card stock. I continued stamping using several other leaves and ink colors to fill up all the gaps. There was a perfect little 'nook' between the leaves to stamp the sentiment and a few tiny flowers.
Then, I stamped the Toucan on a separate piece of card stock and colored him in using Prismacolor pencils, and then fussy cut him and mounted to the front of the card base with foam tape. I'm loving how colorful and bright this card is!

Next up is a card that features one of my favorite stamps from the Paradise set, the hibiscus flower. I stamped and fussy cut each one. For the stripes, I used a stencil and foam blender to apply the same ink colors to the card base. The top card stock panel was die cut with a Mama Elephant stitched edge die. After carefully arranging and adhering the flowers to the white panel, I stamped the sentiment and finished it off with some matte enamel dots from Doodlebug Design!

I'm entering this card into the current Virginia's View Challenge #22 - All About Colors. I think it's a perfect fit for this challenge! ;)

Make sure to hop along and leave comments on all the DT blogs! A random winner will win the entire June Release and the Paradise Hummingbird set (or an eGift Cert to the same value if any sets are already owned/purchased). Comment by Midnight July 2nd, 2016 for a chance to win!
