Time to celebrate ...... Uniko is 8 years old!!!

Happy weekend .....

Pinch and a punch for the first of the month ........welcome to February!
2020 is a leap year too, so we have an extra day this month ..... another 24 hours to celebrate Uniko's 8th birthday!!

To celebrate we're having a special Birthday Blog Hop and Linky Party.
The fun starts today and runs all the way through to February 29th, when the Link Up will close at 23.59 (GMT) so there's lots of time for you to join in the fun!

I've created a pretty rainbow birthday card using the Uniko Party Confetti stencil and a whole load of Distress Oxide colours ........

I blended the colours through the stencil keeping to a simple stripe design, top to bottom.

For the sentiment, half of it was simply stamped directly over the stencil design .......

The rest is a little tease of something new, that's coming very shortly.
Stamped onto snippets of cardstock coloured using the same Distress Oxides as I used for the stencil design .......

fussy cut and attached using foam pads

I added a touch of birthday sparkle using some Crystal Stickles Glitter Glue.

Now it's your turn to join in the fun.  Simply make a birthday card and add it to the Linky Party.
There are prizes up for grabs ........ and 8 chances to win!
