YNS Spooky Feature Day

Today on the Your Next Stamp Blog you can win a stamp set of your choice simply by leaving a comment on the Design Team Feature day post!

The post is full of Spooky/Scary creations.  I went with zombies, because I definitely do not want to encounter any in real life!  Although these guys look a little goofy vs. super scary!

Boo!

Have you played along with the latest challenge from The Cat's Pajamas?  Wouldn't you love to win some Cat Cash?

The challenge going on right now is to play with patterns by combining 3 or more patterned papers on your creation.   

I was expecting to go with bright and cheery patterned paper and then the grim reaper came along...

TCP supplies:   Boo Y'all stamp set

He may not be super scary, but this bunny is definitely not a bright and happy colors kinda bunny!

Here are the challenge details:

1. Every other Tuesday a new challenge will be posted on The Cat’s Pajamas blog and our Facebook page.
2. If you want to play along you just upload your design to The Cat’s Pajamas blog page using the InLinkz button by the Monday, 11:55 EDT before the next challenge.
3. You are not required to use a Cat’s Pajamas stamp or die but if you have them we would love to see them.
4. On the following TCP Tuesday, the winner will be chosen from the previous challenge and will receive a Cat Cash Voucher for $10 or $15 if a TCP product is used.

Link up your patterned creation on The Cat's Pajamas Blog and play along.

Smiles,

YNS DT Dare Fall = Pumpkins

The Your Next Stamp design team was dared to use the new September release products and the colors of fall.   We accepted the challenge which means you could win a stamp set of your choice.

Head on over to the YNS blog and check out all the creations from the team, plus leave a comment on the post to be entered in the draw!

My card is classic fall pumpkins!  If you are like me then you are loving this time of year when everything pumpkin flavored is available.   It is the epitome of fall to me!

  YNS Supplies:  Fab-BOO-lous Halloween stamp set | Fab-BOO-lous Halloween Dies | Autumn Leaves stamp set (sentiment)  | Woodlands Paper Pack | Stitched Square Frame Die set

For this card, the top part of the front of the card was cut away.   A square frame was added to the inside of the card for a bit of extra interest.

Now head on over to the YNS blog!  Good luck!

Your Next Stamp September Blog Hop - Boo!

Today is the day.   The Your Next Stamp September release is available in the YNS store right now!

This release is full of spooky fun, but it also has a couple new planner sets and some cute new critters.

To celebrate we are hosting a blog hop and one lucky person will win a $25.00 gift certificate to the YNS store.   All you need to do is leave comments along the hop.   The more blogs you visit and leave a comment on, the greater your odds of winning.  The full list of blogs is at the bottom of this post.

I have a mix for you today.   Up first is the new stamp set Spooktacular Halloween and the coordinating dies.   This set may be spooky but it is also CUTE, definitely smile inducing!

Next is a project using the new Kids Activity Planning stamp set.   These stamps are the perfect size for calendars and planners, and they are also perfect for tic tac toe!

I drew the lines with a copic and then stamped the image inside each square.   3 die cut squares were layered and glued together to make the base sturdier.  You could also add a layer of thin cardboard to reinforce it even more.   I added a chain to hold the beads.

The last stop on the hop is the YNS store.   Make note of the discount code below to receive 20% of your order!

Have fun shopping and hopping!
Smiles,
Julie
