FAVES Times Two!

Hey!

I'm back this morning to share a card using 2 of my favourite stamp sets from the Uniko Studio October Release & 2 of my favourite colours for Christmas cards...

I started out by revisiting a layout I've used recently on this card I shared HERE, I just elongated it to a 14 x 10.5 cm card. The colours I've used and more specifically the inks are the new line of VersaMagic Inks that Caz has in the shop. They stamp wonderfully and so vibrant don't you think? 

This was a super quick card to make, another to add to the mass produceable list, if required! I added some rhinestones to the snowflakes, but to make it mail friendly a bit of glitter would look just as pretty.

DON'T FORGET I will be at The Paperlane on Saturday 9th November 10 am - 2 pm FREE Demo & also there are a couple of places left in the class 2 pm - 5 pm!  I'd love to see you! 

Supplies

Card Stock: PTI Hawaiian Shores. Red from stash

Ink: VersaMagic Turquoise Gem & Red Magic. VersaFine Onyx Black

Stamps: Uniko Studio Stunning Snowflakes & All Occasion Sentiments #4

Accessories: Rhinestones

Jolly Christmas!

Hey!

It's Beverley here with another little JOLLY Christmas card to share & also remind you all about my upcoming demo & class at The Paperlane on Saturday 9th November! There are a few places left on the class so be sure to book with Caz to secure yours.

Anyway, I made this little card to share with you all...

Yup, I've inked up Jolly Santa from Jolly Christmas and had fun with a little paper piecing. I rarely use patterned paper in my cards even though I have a HUGE stack of lovely papers! I decided to use a patterned paper from Basic Grey's Nordic Holiday. Along with using the paper for Santa I decided to add a strip down either side of the white panel he is stamped on.

I added a sentiment also from the Jolly Christmas set to a banner & some glitter to add a little sparkle & finish things off.  Paper piecing is just one of the techniques we will be doing in the class on Saturday, it's so much fun and can add a totally different look to your projects.

Thanks for stopping by today & I hope to see you on Saturday ;)

Christmas, Snowflakes & Glitter!

I do hope to see you there :)

Positive Emphasis on the Negative...

Hey!

It's Bev here again, did you enjoy the peek yesterday of one card we will be making in Saturday's class? If that wasn't enough to whet you appetite I've another card to share with you today...

This is another card that we will be making in the class. This card uses the BRAND NEW Uniko Studio BRIGHT Butterflies Designer Dies which haven't officially launched over at Uniko Studio. The Paperlane customers & class attendees are getting an exclusive opportunity to see, try & buy these beauties nearly 3 weeks before official release! How cool is that?!

This card uses one of the dies to create butterfly windows to show off some lovely designer paper. This technique of emphasising the negative is so much fun & is a great way to use up those scraps of patterned paper in your stash! 

Come along to the demo & book your place in the class to learn more about this technique & have some crafty fun with us! I've some other projects planned for the class, so be sure to book your place by calling Caz via email admin@thepaperlane.co.uk

I'd LOVE for you to come along & join in on the fun!

Hope to see you there!

Hugs

NEW Stamps are in 'Da House!

Hey!

It's Bev here, just thought I'd pop by & let you know about the NEW Uniko Studio clear stamps which arrived in The Paper Lane on Saturday incase you missed the fun!

First up is BRIGHT Butterflies...

BRIGHT Butterflies £4.95

Copyright Uniko Studio 2012/13

www.unikostudio.co.uk

BRIGHT Butterflies is a smaller sized & smaller priced clear stamp set containing 7 stamps. Even though the set is smaller & smaller priced it packs a punch when it comes to using them on your cards & projects! They also still come contained the the DVD style cases.

This is one of the cards we created in the class on Saturday, it pairs a BRIGHT Butterfly along with the large graphic flower from Time, the lattice design from Background Builders: Lattice & the sentiment from FONTiments - Birthday.

The second NEW clear stamp set by popular request is...

Label Love: Birthday is the next stamp set in the Label Love series. Like the previously released Label Love: Thank you & Label Love: Christmas clear stamp sets there are fun labels in which all the sentiments fit inside & appropriate icons to embellish your creations with a birthday theme. All the Label Love clear stamp sets can be mixed & matched with endless possibilities.

It seemed fitting to release this stamp set this month as it is Uniko Studio's 1st Birthday today after all!!

This is another of the cards we made in the class on Saturday using Label Love: Birthday. The dotty background is stamped using the holly berries from Label Love: Christmas!

Copic Colouring Workshop - 2nd October

Hello Everyone! So lovely to meet everyone yesterday, it is brilliant to be able to sit and talk about colouring in! As promised, click here to be taken to the Copic blank hand colour chart. I am working on a Copic Ciao Chart, so as soon as I have that finished I'll post that here too! Remember to print it off on the cardstock that you use for colouring in on.

I will be posting everyone's completed projects seperately, as they will also be entered into "TPLC04 - Glitz & Sparkle" Challenge!

Look forward to seeing you all soon! K :-)

Introduction to Copic Class

Hi Everyone! Hope all is well with you - I spent the day with five lovely ladies today, getting to grips with Copic markers.

We spent time learning a variety of blends  - so remember to keep playing with your pens ladies!! :-)

Here are all of the lovely samples that the ladies finished. We made a door hanger using Molly Bloom Stamps.

Aren't they all lovely? Such wonderful work! They are all not square too - with Molly Bloom Stamps on - so each and everyone of them could be entered for The Paperlane Challenge too!

Hope to see you all soon! Kx

Lovely Colouring Class at the Paperlane!

Hello! Another Sunday, another class at The Paperlane! Thanks so much ladies for a lovely day - it was really great working with you all!

Today it was all about getting to grips with using Distress Inks as a colouring medium - so there was lots of quiet and concentration this morning! Have a look at the finished work from the ladies - such lovely colours and colouring! A fabulous set of finished pieces.

The ladies all worked with My Mind's Eye Lost and Found Papers.

They chose between Magnolia or Molly Blooms stamps to decorate their projects.

There were a variety of sentiments used - Polka Doodles, Hero Arts and Molly Blooms.

There were lots of Spellbinder's Nesties used too!

The ribbon? That is seam binding that has been scrunched with distress inks and water to give it a lovely vintage feel. It looks so pretty on all of the projects.

Aren't they just wonderful ? Whoever is lucky enough to get one of these through the post will be more than pleased, I am sure!

Thanks again for a lovely day! Hope to see you all soon!

Star Book, Dates and News!

Morning everyone, what a fantastic day!

As promised here is my star book. Showed it to the ladies on Sunday and they want to make a christmas one, its June!! ok, we are making a Christmas version; dates are Thursdays 14th AND 21st july. It will take 2 sessions. Or Sunday 17th AND 24th, or a Sunday and Thursday, you get my drift! (Sundays are 11 to 2 pm)

Also , to keep me out of mischief, i have just made a baby signing book for a customer......

enjoyed using one of my old house-mouse stamps again.

A little bit of news for you all; Sarah has decided that what with work and a husband that complains he never sees her, she is going to devote her energies in other directions. I have just bought Sarah's share in The Paperlane and am now a sole trader. I hope to be able to persuade Sarah to do some more classes and of course she will always be popping in to visit us.

I am hoping to be posting again today as the new Magnolia magazine is due in!!!

All for now folks, enjoy the sun!
love Caz xxx
