ATCAS #4 - WINNERS

Hope you will forgive the lateness of my post for our winners. I haven't had electricity for over 2 days now and have made a mad rush down to the Fire Station (where I am a volunteer) to stash my frozen goods in the freezer and get up to date with some blogging!!

What a massive turnout we had for our Embossing challenge! Wow - such amazing entries! I KNOW that our host for that challenge, Karen, had a massive headache trying to sort out her favourites.

So, without further ado, here are our

Congratulations, Sientje! Here is what Karen had to say about your card -

"It was so hard to pick my CAS perfectionist as there were so many gorgeous entries for this challenge. However Sientje's entry stood out from all the others with her dramatic red and white scheme. The white embossed poppy flower over the three shades of red was stunning. CAS at it's very best."

Uniko Studio is a small company based in the North East of the UK. Uniko Studio specialises in surface pattern design & clear stamps for the hobby market.
Uniko Studio will feature high quality photopolymer stamps designed & manufactured here in the UK, and if things go well we will branch out into other crafting supplies.
Since starting & graduating from Cleveland College of Art & Design, with a first class honours (BA) degree in Textiles & Surface Pattern Design I knew that my new path in life would be a creative one. Since a young girl I have been creative & I have enjoyed the hobby of making cards for as long as I can remember! During the final stages of my degree I focused my projects on designing clear stamps for the hobby market with a clear focus of starting the company once I graduated.
So here I am.. Uniko Studio! I hope you will join me on this adventure & enjoy the NEW stamp designs from Uniko Studio.
