Today's the Day! It's the Uniko 7th Birthday February 2019 Release Blog Hop GIVEAWAY and Treasure Hunt

Happy Monday ........

Let's get the week off to a great start shall we.
You might want to grab a coffee .... this is going to be fun but it could take a while.  There's lots to get through and loads of pictures.

Over the last few days, along with the rest of the Uniko Design Team, I've been introducing the brand new Uniko Birthday Release, available later today, on the Uniko website.  Check out the New Arrivals section from 9pm this evening (GMT)

There's SIX gorgeous new clear stamp sets, TWO of which have fabulous matching sets of dies, and ONE brand new stencil design.
If you need a reminder, here they are ......

The new stencil design ..... Abstract Triangles (I love this!)

The stamps, and designer dies ....
Great sentiments and words with  BIG & BOLD Happy

A great set of dies to match this one .....

Birthday Wishes ....... perfect for the inside of your cards as well as out

 Two new Background Blocks ..... Graffiti Texture and Pinstripe

A gorgeous new floral ..... Passiflora 

with matching dies available too ...

And finally the pretty Febrauary Release Freebie ...... You Are, Yes You! 

Yes, this little beauty will be added FREE to Release Day orders of £25 or more, until Sunday 17th Feb ..... or until stocks last!

If there is any stock left after that date, it will be available to purchase.

Now for a little inspiration .......

First up, BIG & BOLD Happy ....... great words, the perfect party accent stamps, and those matching dies!

I've used the large Happy stamp here, heat embossed with a sparkly powder and then used the die to cut it out .....

It's so cool how everything works so well together too .....

I've used the Abstract Triangles stencil, Graffiti Texture Background Block and the Birthday Wishes set here.  If you follow the Uniko Blog then I'll be taking you through how I made this one later in the month.

Passiflora up next ..... the gorgeous new floral set, with those matching dies .....

Use just some of the layering stamps to create fun looking flowers .....

I've used one of the dies too ..... to add a touch of dimension

Could that be the new Pinstripe Background Block too ...... yes, it is!

Here it is used again, this time with the pretty Freebie stamp set ..... You Are ....Yes You!

I do love this little bloom .... I've simply stamped it all over a piece of white card, filling in the gaps with one of the leaf stamps, and coloured with ZIG markers ....

Added a cute little sentiment from the same set .....

And finished off with a strip down the side stamped with the Pinstripe ....... 

A few sparkly sequins add the final touch ...... so pretty!

Last but not least, a really quick and easy, CAS design, using the Pinstripe again,  the flower and leaf from the Freebie set and one of those fab sentiments from Birthday Wishes .......

A fancy die cut edge to show off the Pinstripe panel 

The flower simply stamped and coloured ...

And the sentiment is centre stage .....

What a great new release!

The fun's not over yet though.
