Uniquely Creative - August Stamp and Colour Kit - Card #2

Hello there!! Its an absolutely stunning Saturday morning here. The sun is so hot already and there is a very slight breeze. Nice to have no frost and think I'll be in shorts by lunchtime!! Spring has definitely sprung early!

 The new Uniquely Creative - August Stamp and Colour Kit is so fabulous with a 'Fairytale Wishes' theme. Perfect for all your little Prince and Princesses. For this card I used one of the 'add-on' stamp sets and some Uniquely Creative dies to create a background:

 I love how the background came together, not something I've done before but a great way to use my nesting dies.

Firstly I stamped the unicorn and stars from the 'Fairytale Princess' stamp set on white CS with Gina K Amalgam black ink. I then coloured with my Altenew Artist Markers and fussy cut out.

For the background. I used the 'Cross-stitch Circle Frame Dies' from white CS and some Blue CS which came with the kit. I glued the two blue larger ones to the card front first with Gina K Connect Glue and worked my way back to each corner from there.

I added the Unicorn and stars on foam tape and gave them some sparkle with a Uniquely Creative Clear Sparkle Brush. For the sentiment (from the same stamp set) I stamped it with Versafine Onyx black ink 2x and then clear heat embossed on white CS. I backed it with some silver glitter CS and black CS and then popped on foam tape.

I'm going to link this to the Simon Says Stamp - Wednesday Challenge where their theme is 'Anything Goes'.

And will also join the Simon Says Stamp - Monday Challenge where their theme is 'S is for' and mine is for 'Stars'.

I'm off outside to enjoy the sunshine. Phoebe and I will walk up the Wither Hills today for some exercise and we always have a good talk. Also need to finish off shopping for Father's Day tomorrow. Enjoy your weekend when it finally arrives!

Take care
