May Feature Day – Comment for your chance to WIN a YNS Stamp Set!

Posted by: YourNextStamp on Monday, May 25, 2015 at 12:00 am

Hello! Happy Memorial Day to all our friends in the USA! Thank you for taking the time to stop by today! Are you ready to fill yourself up with some YNS inspiration?!

*********

If you are coming across this monthly post for the first time you are in for a real treat! It’s not only about inspiration…there’s a prize too! Woot! Woot!

****

We know how much you love seeing samples featuring YNS products so on the 22nd of every month (with the exception of this month…it’s actually May 25th today) we’ll be sharing fabulous projects by the YNS DT featuring YNS stamps and dies plus…

Prize Alert!

This month we’re focusing on CASE the DT! CASE stands for Copy And Share Everything. It can be an exact duplication of one’s work or it can be modified using different colors, images, techniques etc… We’re proud to have such amazing talent here at YNS so we asked the DT members to pick a project that another DT member already created and then CASE it to create a new project for today’s feature day post. I think CASing is a great way to spark your creativity when you’re feeling a little low on mojo and can’t find a starting point for your own personal projects.

You’ll find all of the fabulous YNS products used on the DT projects and much more in the YNS Store!

I had a customer approach me last year asking me to create a baking stamp set geared towards different food allergies soooo I asked for some help from the uber talented Macy Wong and we created the Baking Buddies stamp and die set! Love it! We have some very strict ‘no peanut’ rules at our school so I used the adorable ‘school safe’ owl image to make a little treat holder for Brandon’s school friends. They all survived the grueling Grade One curriculum and are graduating to Grade Two so they deserve a little treat to celebrate! *grin*
