Uniko New Release .......... Day 3 Introducing Mid Century Modern Stencil

Good morning!

It's Friday ..... whoo hoo!!!  The weekend is here, and we've got a Bank Holiday on Monday so it's a nice long one.  Fingers crossed the weather stays nice.

Welcome to Day 3 of Introductions for the new Uniko release coming up on Sunday.  All the fab new designs will be available to purchase from the Uniko website at 9pm (BST)  How's your shopping list coming along?

Over the last couple of days we've seen the new stamps,  and one of the new die sets.  Today we have a new stencil design ...... meet Mid Century Modern


A real cool design which I think is going to be perfect for masculine cards, and kids designs.
It's the same design as one of the new Background Blocks stamps ...... but bigger! And as with all the Uniko stencils it fits a square 6x6 inch card perfectly.

I simply used my Distress Oxides through the design ...... looks great in the multi-colours


I added a few splatters using the same Oxide colours and added a dot of glitter glue here and there .....


The great thing about the Uniko range is that when new products arrivv they always work so well with all the previous releases.
Here I've paired the new stencil with stamps and matching dies from the Explosion range


Stamped using the Oxide colours and then die cut.  Attached with foam pads to add a bit of dimension, and a piece of folded acetate so that the WOW! moves


An added sentiment gives the finishing touch


Well there's still one more day of Introductions to go before we have the release day.
Don't forget to check out the Uniko Blog to see what the rest of the Design Team have been creating, and also pop by and say Hello to our lovely Guest Designer for this release ..... Jenny from Crafting in the Country.

Thanks for popping by ...... have a lovely day and enjoy your weekend.
It's International Sauvignon Blanc Day today and to celebrate we're off out this evening.  We're off to our favourite little place in town, Wine Down, for another of their fabulous tasting menus. Five delicious courses all paired with fine Sauvignon Blanc wines ....... cheers everyone!
I can't be too late home though .... I have a workshop tomorrow!

Cheerio until next time .....

Superb mix of colours Linda and the combo of the stencil and stamp/die Explosion set is a fantastic match.
