Hi Everyone!
We are getting the week off to an inspiring start with a special coloring post featuring the work of Sandy Allnock!
Sandy is an artist with amazing coloring skills, who also teaches. Her creations and tutorials can be found on her blog – Sandy Allnock, You Tube channel and through her classes, which are offered both online and in person.
Sandy worked some of her coloring magic using the stamp set Just Plane Amazing and created a card she has named “Fizzy Flight”. We are thrilled that she also created a video to give you more insight in how to go about creating your own fizzy flight bubble effect.

This week we spied a card created by pam01523 on Instagram that is fun x 5! 5 notebooks that is…
Colorful and cute, Pam really put the stamp set Spectacular Teacher to work. From the sentiment on the banner, to the sentiments on the notebook covers, Pam effectively combined so many stamps. This was not the only card Pam made with this set. Here is a link to her Instagram gallery so you can see more of her colorful and cute creations!
We are always on the lookout for customer creations featuring Your Next Stamp products. Be sure to tag your photos with #yournextstamp.
