Hello Everyone!
There are so many wonderful Your Next Stamp creations out there! We have fun browsing blogs and galleries and seeing all the projects that YOU create!
This week’s “I Spy” YNS Saturday features a tag created by our January Release special guest Francine, of the blog “1001 Cartes“.
Francine used the YNS set Winter Home to create a background for the tree with raccoon popping out (raccoon stamp is from another stamp company). What a way to combine stamps! Be sure to check out Francine’s blog to see more of her amazing tags.

Finally, time for our first new challenge of 2015! Challenge #5 is here…
As always, we give you both a sketch and color challenge to choose from. Which one will it be? Or will you use both?
Feel free to swap out shapes – a circle in the place of a rectangle, etc. We just need to see the basic sketch layout as the inspiration for your creation.
If you choose the color combo, be sure to use 3 and feel free to add in neutrals.
Your Next Stamp’s Color and Sketch Challenge #5 is open for the next 2 weeks through January 22, 2015 midnight EST.
***
Now on to some inspiration from the design team and our guest from December, Suzanne!
Be sure to join in the fun and share your own creation inspired by either the sketch or the colors OR both! Link up your project through Inlinkz below.
YNS’ bi-weekly challenge #5 ends on Thursday, January 22, 2015 at midnight EST
One random participant will win a $15 gift certificate to the Your Next Stamp store. If YNS stamps or dies are the focal point then the winner receives an additional $5 gift certificate for a total of $20. The winner will be announced on the YNS Blog the Sunday after the challenge closes.
