Gift Challenge at YNS!

Good Morning And Welcome to a
Challenge Day
for Your Next Stamp!

Todays Challenge is: Gifts!

Christmas is just around the corner and this is the perfect Challenge!
You can make gifts, do tags, use something on your project you got as a gift!

For this challenge I decided to make a gift card holder. I don't know about you but as the kids are getting older it is harder and harder for them to decide what they would like for Christmas/presents and really all they want are gift cards (or cash, but this works for cash as well!)

I used the Gift Card Holder Die Set and cut a little window out and inserted some vellum in. Then I used the word die that comes with the set and cut out the "Just for You' from some cardstock. Then I took the little penguin from the Holiday Chill Stamp Set, stamped it on some Copic paper and coloured it with Copic markers. Then I highlighted it with some Stickles and YNS Tinsel Gumdrops!

You can find ALL the products I used HERE and be sure to join in the Challenge!
This one runs until January 12th now!

Our challenges always come with 2 ways to win:

Good Morning And Welcome to a
Challenge Day
for Your Next Stamp!

Todays Challenge is: Thank You!

A new little die was released recently and I knew I wanted to use it for this Challenge!
The die is called the 3x3 Snowfall Panel Die! I cut out some textured cardstock with it and backed it in vellum. In all the little holes I put some Stickles as the snowflakes and then stamped the sentiment on top of the vellum. I then stamped the skater and tree onto some Copic cardstock (from the Holiday Magic Set)and coloured them with Copics. Then I finished it off with some more Stickles.

New Challenge at YNS!

Good Morning And Welcome to a
Challenge Day
for Your Next Stamp!

Todays Challenge is: Midnight

So I went with this theme a little differently! We just had a brand new release at YNS of amazing holiday themed stamps and dies and I am IN THE holiday creation mode! So when I thought Midnight....I thought of Santa, cookies, treats etc!
What better way to celebrate than to have a sweet midnight snack!

I used the Holiday Treats stamps and Dies for this project
I stamped all of the little treats and plate onto some Copic paper and coloured it with Copic markers. Then I used the matching dies to cut them all out. I put everything on top of some coloured cardstock and popped some of the images up using the brand new YNS Pop dots!
I finished it off with some glitter and Gumdrops!

New Release Inspiration

Good Morning And Welcome to my
New Release Individual Spotlight 
for 

Today is a special day, I have created a few things for you from the brand new release at YNS!

For my first project I created a card using the Magical Holiday Moments Stamp set. I made a peek a boo window using some circle dies and stamped the image within the hole. Then I coloured it using Copic markers and some glitter. Then I used some paper from the Winter Plaid collection and stamped a sentiment right on top as well as added a little border. Then I stamped it again onto white cardstock and fussy cut the word SWEET out and adhered it overtop of the word.


For my second project I made some holiday tags!

I stamped the images (From the Snow Adorable Stamp set and the Magical Holiday Moments Set) onto Copic paper and coloured them with Copic markers. Then I cut some complimentary cardstock and used the  new Shaker Globe Die to cut it out. Then I cut it again using gold paper and fussy cut the top off to look like a gold topper, added the matching bow I had coloured and added lots of glitter and a ribbon!





And here are what the sets look like!

Scrap Challenge at YNS

Good Morning And Welcome to a 
Challenge Day
from Your Next Stamp!
Today we are having a
"SCRAP" CHALLENGE!

We have had a much needed break for the summer but we are back strong with a brand new challenge for you! We challenge you to use up all those scraps you have hanging around!

SO, I looked through my YNS paper pads because I always tuck my extra pieces back into the pad for safe keeping! I decided on the Geometrics Paper Pad because I had a lot of nice sized scraps to work with!

I paired these scraps with some dies- The Bold Thank You Die Set, and the Wonky Stitched Oval Dies

I cut strips of the scrap paper and layered them to create a striped background. Then I cut the circle out using the Wonky Oval dies and backed it with acetate to create a shaker card. I added in the sequins and backed it on some more patterned paper and a card base.
Then I cut out the THANKS, stamped the sentiment and finished it off with some Gumdrops!

New Challenge at Your Next Stamp!

Good Morning And Welcome to a 
Challenge Day
from Your Next Stamp!
Today we are having an 
"ANYTHING GOES" CHALLENGE!

These past two weeks have been jammed packed with a whole bunch of inspiration from the new June release so I decided to use something new from that!

The stamp set I am using is called Gum Believable and I paired it with the new Bold Thank You Die Set
I stamped the dog onto some Copic paper and coloured him with Copic markers. Then I cut out some red cardstock using the new dies from the Bold Thank you set. I wanted to keep this card clean and simple so I layered some cardstock for the background, glued the word on and stamped the sentiment. Lastly, I popped up the dog with some foam squares.
