YNS Release Special!

 


HELLO!! And Welcome to a 
Special August Birthday New Release Day
from Your Next Stamp!

Today is my day to highlight one of the fabulous new releases just launched yesterday!
Did you know? YNS turned 11 years this month!!

I am highlighting the new stamp set called Happy Gnomies and the matching Dies 
as well as a new Heart Striped Die.

This was such a fun card to make! I decided to make a slimline (long) card this time and layered some hearts from the new striped die. One of them I used the stripes and the
 other two I just used the plain heart. (Both come in the set!)
I stamped the little Gnomie from the Happy Gnomies set and coloured him with Copic markers. Then I cut him out using the matching dies. I also stamped a sentiment from the set onto one of the hearts on my card.
Lastly, I adhered the Gnomie with some foam tape and then hand drew some black lines in a double pattern along the outline of the card and added some gumdrops from the Winter Wonderland Sparkly collection.




You can find ALL the new August Releases HERE.

Day Three of Previews!!

  


WELCOME to Day THREE of the
Your Next Stamp AUGUST 2020 Previews!!

Another one of our new stamp sets is VERY unique and I had a LOT of fun playing with it!
It is called Dots and Shapes and the possibilities are endless with this set!
It contains dotted shapes as well as solids.

I started by using Distress inks and did a messy background adding a lot of water. Then once it was dry I stamped the solid shapes and wet them with a paintbrush and tipped it so the paint ran down the card. Once that was dry I used a blak ink with the dotted shapes and stamped them on top of the runny images. Lastly...some gumdrops for effect!

The FULL Release and INSTAGRAM Hop starts on TUESDAY August 18th to the 23rd and it all starts at 11 AM!

We are giving away stamp set being previewed pulling from comments left on YNS blog, designers blogs and YNS IG . Winners will be announced on YNS blog 8/18.

WELCOME to Day TWO of the
Your Next Stamp AUGUST 2020 Previews!!

This new set called Lifetime of Happiness is SO adorable!!
It features little Hammies and is perfect for weddings, showers, anniversaries and more!
I stamped the Hammies onto some Copic paper and coloured them using Copic markers. Then I used the matching dies and cut them out. I layered three patterned papers and then put the little guys ontop using foam squares. I stamped the sentiment using Black Olive Ink and added some Pretty Pastel Gumdrops.

Who's Celebrating??

We have a brand new Challenge for you this week!

The theme this week is Celebration! 
Did you know that this is Your Next Stamps Birthday Month???

We are celebrating all month long and this goes for the challenges as well!
For my card I used the SO Many Circles Panel Die and the Bold Happy Birthday Word Die.
I cut out the red paper using the panel die and then made it into a shaker card and put lots of sequins behind it. Then I cut the word Happy and backed it with some papers from the School Days Paper Pad. Lastly, I stamped a sentiment from the Whatnot Sentiments Eleven.
