January Release at YNS

Welcome to my 
second day for the 
January New Release and Spotlight 2022!

YNS released a brand new collection of stamps and dies last week and here are my creations with the amazing new products!
For my first card I am using the new Sloffee stamp set and matching dies! I started by stamping the Sloth and colouring him with my Copic markers and then cutting it out with the dies. Then I used the NEW Whimsy Heart Stencil and created a background using ink and embossing paste. Next, I cut out the heart string using the String Heart Die, embossed the sentiment, and added some Gumdrops.

For this card I used the brand new Hot Cocoa Cutie Stamp Set and paired it with some papers from the Crazy for Coffee Paper Pad.
I started out by stamping the coffee cup coloured it with Copic Markers. Then I stamped the sentiment in pink and layered everything on top of the patterned papers and card base.

Be sure to check out everything in the YNS Shop!
AND...... This is the last day to take advantage of the SALE!!

Be sure to comment, see me on

Have a wonderful day!

Welcome to my
first day for the 
January New Release and Spotlight 2022!

YNS released a brand new collection of stamps and dies last week and here are my creations with the amazing new products!
For my first card I am using the new Hammie I Heart you stamp set and matching dies! I started by stamping the Hammie and colouring him with my Copic markers and then cutting it out with the dies. Then I used the puffy cloud stencil and created a background sky and adhered it onto a die cut I made using the cute scalloped rectangle dies. Then I random stamped the hearts from the Hammie set for a background card and put the rectangle on top. Lastly, I stamped the sentiment and wrapped some twine around it.

For this card I used the brand new Sprinkled With Love set and paired it with the
I started out by stamping the three images onto some circles I cut with the circle dies and coloured them with Copic Markers. Then I out them on top of a panel I cut out using the mini slimline die and then stamped and added the sentiment.

Be sure to check out everything going on this week and next because it is jammed with the DTs projects and what they did with the new stamps, dies and stencils!

Seasons Challenge at YNS!

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

That means use one of the four seasons to inspire you!

My thoughts for this challenge were....Summer.....Weddings!
Although "weddings" is not a season,  the traditional month that is thought of for weddings is summer. (Even though through this pandemic everyone has had to do multiple postponing!)



I started off by stamping the cake image from the Lifetime of Happiness Stamp set onto some Copic paper and coloured it using Copic markers. Then I cut it out using the matching dies.
I folded some Kraft cardstock for a base and then added some paper form the Winter Plaid Paper Pad and added a border using the Scallop Heart Edge Die.
Then I added the cake image on with some foam tape and stamped the sentiment.

You can find ALL the products I used HERE.
And remember to follow us on Instagram as well!

Photo Inspiration Challenge!

Good Morning And Welcome to a 
Challenge Day
from Your Next Stamp!
Today we are having a 
PHOTO INSPIRATION CHALLENGE!
and here is the photo:

Since this is a picture of books I thought more along the lines of what to use with books...hence a bookmark. So, I created a corner bookmark for you!
These are so much fun to make and I was inspired by so many videos on YouTube on how to make them. Its basically just origami!

I started by folding the 6x6 piece of paper (the videos were all 5x5 papers but I wanted to make mine a bit bigger!) and then added a second triangle in cardstock to the front. Then I stamped the butterfly (from the Beautiful Butterflies Set) onto some Copic paper and coloured dit with Copic markers and used the die to cut it out. Lastly, I stamped the sentiment in black olive ink and purple and added some gumdrops!
This is how it slips onto your book or notebook!

You can find ALL the sets HERE.
