Introducing ........ Spring Botanicals - Tulips

Happy Friday ......

I hope you've had a nice week.

Today is Day 4 of Introductions for the brand new Uniko release coming up on Sunday 23rd February at 9pm (GMT)

So far this week we've seen 4 of the new stamp sets, and yesterday it was the debut of a fabulous new set of Designer Dies.  If you've been following the blog posts all week you'll see that the Brand Ambassadors have been very busy!

We're going all floral today, looking forward to Spring, with another new stamp set ....... Spring Botanicals - Tulips

Just like the other stamps from the Spring Botanicals range, you get a gorgeous floral as the main image ....... two beautiful tulips, along with some words and sentiments with a cheery Spring feel.


Even though the main stamp is quite large ....... it makes a stunning focal point on your card ...... you can still use it to create a pretty all over design.

I stamped the tulips all over the card, and heat embossed them in gold.


I then used watercolour paints to colour the flowers


and added one of the sentiments from the set onto the white space ......


If you prefer something a little more CAS, and perfect for Spring .......


Again, stamped the tulips and heat embossed in gold, coloured with watercolour paints ......


and finished with a sentiment


I do love tulips, don't you.

The introductions are not over yet, there's still two more stamp sets to share with you before the big release on Sunday ...... see you tomorrow!

Thanks for popping by ..... enjoy the rest of your day and have a lovely weekend.
It looks like we're in for bad weather again ...... I just hope it holds off long enough for hubby to get back on the island.  He's flying home this evening ..... fingers crossed!

Cheerio until next time .........
