This week we spied a wonderful Christmas card on Instagram made by Christina Perrson aka Scrapkammaren.
Christina’s card makes a huge statement with a simple color scheme. Sometimes less is more.
There may be few colors, but her card has so much texture with the snow, stars and bit of patterned paper.
We are always on the look out for YNS creations. Your card could be featured here next week.
Have a great weekend.

The Top Pick for Challenge #25 is this pretty winter card created by Tricia Traxler of the blog Simply Stamping! 
The simple color combo really captures the cool essence of winter. The snowman is colored up wonderfully with his adorable plaid scarf. The white hearts on the aqua banner really pop. There is so much to like about her card!
Stop by Tricia’s blog, say hi, and then check out all her other great creations! You may have noticed that Tricia had a card featured yesterday on the YNS I Spy post…she is taking over the blog this weekend!
Our new challenge is up right now. Play along with #26 for your chance to win a YNS gift certificate!

Boo! Happy Halloween!
This week’s I Spy is actually not a spooky card. Not scary at all! In fact, this one scores off the charts on the cuteness scale.
The creation we spied this week may be clean and simple, but the results are super sweet and sure to make you smile!
Check out Tricia Traxler’s card featuring Hot Cocoa Phoebe…
Tricia does a great job of breaking up all the white on the background with subtle water colored snowflakes – genius!!! Even Phoebe was water colored with markers. Oh my cuteness! Doesn’t this card make you want to run out and buy some water color markers right now???!!!
We are always on the lookout for YNS creations made by YOU! Keep on crafting and sharing.

Throughout October, our guest designer, Faye Wynn-Jones has amazed us with her beautifully colored creations. Please join me in saying farewell to Faye.
To recap the month, let’s check out some of the winter cards she created using YNS products. Each card showcases her clean style and the last 2 feature a touch of the doodling she is known for.
Faye, thanks for joining us this month! We look forward to seeing your future YNS creations on your blog Stampin FluffnStuff.

Hi Everyone! What better way to start the week than with announcing the winner of Your Next Stamp’s October Feature Day post???!!!
Thank you to everyone who stopped by and left the design team some love. Your comments always make us smile.
The winner of a stamp set of their choice is Shari Leonard, who left comment #1!!!
Congrats Shari! Please contact Karen via the link at the bottom of the blog to claim your prize. I promise the fact that Shari liked my card had nothing to do with random.org selecting #1…unless there was a little telekinesis at work!
Have a great week and if you have some crafting time join in Challenge #25 for a chance to win a YNS gift certificate.
