YNS Blog Hop! ‘Too Cute To Spook’ September Release

Welcome to our super FUN ‘Too Cute To Spook’ YNS Blog Hop featuring our brand spankin’ NEW September release stamps!!!

The hop starts today (September 14th) and will run until September 17th at midnight EST

Before I tell you where to hop starts I just want to say THANK YOU to my fabulous illustrators Fhiona, Franfou and Heather for these amazing Fall Designs!!! They are all super CUTE and the YNS DT and YNS Guests did a FABULOUS job showcasing all the new stamps – thanks ladies!!!

I’m the last stop on the hop so if you have arrived on my blog and you didn’t complete the hop as of yet you’ll want to head on over to the uber talented Kerri’s Blog where all the fun begins! I’ll see you back here really soon!!!

If you’ve been hopping along and arrived on my blog from the super sweet and talented Amy’s Blog then you are on the right track and you’ve made it to the final stop on the hop! I hope you’re jaw doesn’t hurt too much after hitting the table so many times!!! The DT creations are fantastic – YES? CUTE CUTE CUTE!!!

Now before you head off to the YNS Store to shop you’re little heart out I’ve got my hop project to share with you. I decided to make a card featuring the new Spooktacular stamp (which I totally LOVE) and I was supposed to combine it with our current YNS Challenge #51 BUT I got crafting away and when I was done I looked at my card and did the old ‘forehead slap’ and went “DUH” because I didn’t paper piece anything!!! Although I did cover the cardstock shape I cut out in the middle of the card with DP – does that count? Oh, well I’ll make something new for you all and share it later this week!

Ok now off you go to see Peggy! I’m the last stop so be sure to come back and visit me really soon!

______________________________
Welcome back! I really hope you enjoyed our YNS Birthday Hop! It’s ok if you drooled all over your keyboard, I won’t tell anyone! I know I did when I saw all the stunning DT and Guest projects! WOW!!!
You should have all your puzzle pieces but before you submit your puzzle I’d like to share my hop projects with you!
First off I made a bright and cheery birthday card! I inked up Heather R.’s Make a Wish stamp set and added a little shine with my glitter pen and a little sparkle by adding some YNS Sparkly Flat Backs and YNS Glittered Skittles. Check out my floating flames! LOL I put it all together and forgot the twine to connect the flame to the candle! OOPS!
Next up is my new release project. I decided to ink up Fhiona’s new set Rainbows and Happiness for my card. I got out my sparkly Twinkling H20’s {which I totally heart} and then added some YNS Sparkly Flat Backs for some extra bling. The sentiment is stamped with my all time favorite stamp pad Calypso and the white cardstock is Cryogen White which has a built in shimmer. Oh and we must not forget the fuzz I added to the clouds – messy stuff to work with but so FUN! It’s hard to see all the sparkle in the photo but this card definitely twinkles!
OK so now how about some Birthday Prizes! YAY! Be sure to have all your puzzle pieces and then submit your final puzzle below for your chance to win one of these FABULOUS prize packs!
 YNS Birthday Prize #1
YNS Birthday Prize #2
I’ll announce the winners on Tuesday August 16th! YAY!
Thank you so much for joining in all our YNS Birthday FUN!

Just in case you get lost along the way here is the hop line up and if you have any questions or concerns with the puzzle please leave me a comment and I’ll be happy to assist you!
