:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

Hey! Welcome to the Uniko March/April 2019 Challenge!

Are you in the mood for springtime? I'm sure, most of us are! Grey and cold winter days need to come to an end now... Most of us need some sunshine, the fragrance and colours of beautiful flowers and fresh green leaves! Right?
If you agree, I have the right Challenge theme for you - it's SPRING!

And do you celebrate Easter? If yes, you can also add the Optional Twist of Easter to your project!

Don't forget the most important ingredient: have fun creating something !

K1-1036 - Birthday in turquoise and gold - Detail sentiment

I had the sweet little forget-me-not (or myosotis) in my mind when I was creating this card. 

I love these little flowers and can't wait seeing the start of their blooming in my garden in the later springtime! The colours I used aren't the original colours for sure, the blue is too much turquoise here and the yellow turned into gold, but the idea behind is what counts in the end, right?

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

K1-1068 - Rotes Radio - Detail

Erinnert ihr euch noch daran, dass ich mit meiner Leuchtturmkarte bei der Create A Smile Challenge #27 - "L is for..." als Featured Artist nominiert wurde?
Eigentlich wäre ich dadurch bei der Sketch Challenge #29 GD gewesen. Leider kam mir ein Virus dazwischen...

Ich hab noch einige weiterer monochrome Karten gemacht - in ganz unterschiedlichen Farben. Hüpft hin, um mehr zu sehen!

I made some more monochromatic cards - in many different colours. Hop there to see more!

Türkis/Petrol = turquoise/teal: 
K1-1070 - Frohe Ostern (= Happy Easter)
Gelb = yellow: 
K1-1069 - Federleichte Ostergrüße (= feathered easter greetings)
Lila = purple: 
K1-1071 - lila Frühlingsgrüße (= purple spring greetings)
K1-1072 - Kroküsse (= Crokisses)

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

Über die Karte:
Ich hab zuerst mit Hilfe der "Focal Dots" Stencil die roten Distress Oxide Punkte auf's Papier gebracht, in die ich dann mit einigen der kleinen Stempel aus dem "Perfect Tune" Set im selben Ton noch Ringe zugefügt habe. Das Radio stammt ebenfalls aus dem "Perfect Tune" Set und wurde erst mit Stabilo Markers koloriert und dann teilweise mit Glossy Accents überzogen. Die beiden Wörter  stammen aus der doppelte-Stanzen-Serie und wurden zweifarbig ausgestanzt, zusammengefügt und ebenfalls mit Glossy Accents überzogen.
Ich wollte die Karte clean und simple halten, aber doch noch einen gewissen Pepp zufügen. Meine Wahl fiel auf ein rotes Halogen-Tape, das nun den oberen und unteren Kartenrand ziert und von dem sich das mit 3D-Tape befestigte Punktepapier deutlich abhebt!

About this card:
First I brought the red Distress Oxide dots with the "Focal Dots" stencil onto the paper, then I used some of the small stamps from the "Perfect Tune" set to add some circles in the same colour. The radio is also a stamp of the "Perfect Tune" set. I stamped it and coloured it with Stabilo markers and covered some parts with Glossy Accents. Both words are out of the double-die-series and they were cut out in red and white, assembled and also covered with Glossy Accents.
I wanted a clean and simple card, but I wanted a something special effect too. I chose a red holographic tape which embellishes the upper and lower edge now and with them the dotty paper I adhered with 3D tape really pops out!

Über die Karte:
Heute hab ich eine Karte nur mit Produkten von Create A Smile Stamps gemacht.
Die Funky Fethers hab ich auf Vellum gestempelt, weiß embossed, auf der Rückseite mit Copic Markern koloriert und ausgeschnitten.
Das Ei ist eigentlich das Innenleben der Babyrassel aus dem Willkommen Baby Set. Ich hab es mit Oxide Inks koloriert und mit Nuvo Drops und Gelstiften verziert.
Aus den Crystal Letters hab ich  meinen Text gestempelt und dann mit Stabilo Markern die kleinen Fragmente koloriert. Um die Kristalle zum Leuchten zu bringen, hab ich sie anschließende noch mit einer Schicht Glimmer überzogen.
Jetzt waren alle Elemente fertig vorbereitet und mussten nur noch zusammengefügt werden!  Um das Federnest etwas flauschiger zu gestalten, hab ich noch einige echte, teilweise eingefärbte Federn zugefügt.

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

About this card:
For my new card I just used supplies from Create A Smile Stamps.
I stamped the Funky Feathers on vellum, heat embossed in white, coloured the backside witth Copic markers and fussycut them out.
The egg is actually the inside of a baby rattle out of the Welcome Baby Set. I coloured it with Oxide Inks and decorated it with Nuvo Drops and Gelly Rolls.
The sentiment is letter-stamped with the Crystal Letters and the little areas are coloured with Stabilo Markers. To make the crystals shine I added a layer of glimmer.
Now all the elements were ready and I just had to combine them on my card! To get a more fluffy nest of feathers I added some real feathers.

K1-1073 - Spring Sunshine / Uniko BlogHop

Welcome to our Non-Release-Month DesignTeam Blog Hop and Giveaway!

On the Uniko Blog Beverley wrote a short "what you need to know" about this little traditional event for everybody who isn't familiar with it.

The sentiment on the card is "A kind word is like sunshine on a spring day".

K1-1073 - Spring Sunshine

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

So... let's go here directly to the theme/supplies of this DT-Challenge!
Cause Winter comes slowly to an end and spring is starting soon we have chosen to give some special love and some fresh ink to the spring fitting stamp sets of the Spring Botanicals Daffodil and Spring Botanicals Snowdrop and also the Spring Butterflies Stencil!

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

After my first card I made this second one.

It has the focus on the stencil and a stamped butterfly of the English Country Garden Set, combined with the sentiment "A kind word is like sunshine on a spring day" of the Snowdrop set. 

K1-1073 - Spring Sunshine - Detail

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

About this card:
I combined  the Kraft paper with white pigment ink, added through the stencil.

Then I stamped the smaller butterfly of the English Garden Set on a piece of Vellum, and heat embossed it with white embossing powder, I coloured it with a  yellow marker on the backside (so you can avoid any colour smearing on vellum).

The sentiment is stamped with yellow oxide inks. The vellum-butterfly is adhered on the white "shadow" of the stenciled butterfly.

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

The other Members of the Uniko DesignTeam made some awesome cards for this BlogHop!

K1-1074 - Wonderful Butterfly / Uniko BlogHop

Welcome to our Non-Release-Month DesignTeam Blog Hop and Giveaway!

On the Uniko Blog Beverley wrote a short "what you need to know" about this little traditional event for everybody who isn't familiar with it.

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

My first card has the focus on parts of the stencil and a stamped butterfly of the English Country Garden Set, combined with the sentiment "Always believe something wonderful is about to happen" of the Daffodil set. 

The second card is here!

K1-1074 - Wonderful Butterfly

K1-1074 - Wonderful Butterfly - Detail

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

About this card:
I combined  the Kraft paper with white pigment ink, added through a stencil which I moved around on my work-surface to get many of th flowery dots and only one centered butterfly.

Then I added some stamps - a white dotty border and also the black elements. The butterfly I stamped onto the stenciled one. Why? To get the opportunity to colour on the white surface and not on the Kraft paper with my bright markers.
After the coloures were dried I added some clear glimmer and one coat of glossy accents to the wings. This iridescent touch is a more natural look of a butterfly than only Glossy Accents.
To be more CAS I avoid more embellishments and let the butterfly be the one big and colourful focal point.

:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:

So... let's go here directly to the theme/supplies of this DT-Challenge!
Cause Winter comes slowly to an end and spring is starting soon we have chosen to give some special love and some fresh ink to the spring fitting stamp sets of the Spring Botanicals Daffodil and Spring Botanicals Snowdrop and also to the Spring Butterflies Stencil!
