It’s new release day and we’re celebrating with a super fun blog hop! YIPPEE!!! The hop starts tonight and will run until Monday July 18th at midnight EST.
I’m the end of the hop so if you’ve arrived here via the talented and ever so entertaining Carole Burrage’s blog you are in the right place! If not, be sure to start at the fabulous and super talented Kerri’s Blog so you don’t miss any of the fabulous YNS DT and YNS Guest creations!
This release features 3 new World Kids, a super sweet Soccer Cutie, an adorable new Ellie plus Curly Cutie Fhiona designed by the super talented Fhiona Galloway plus we’ve got 2 amazing new sets by the oh so talented Heather Rolin called Window Play Inside and Outside. All the stamps are FABULOUS and I hope you love them just as much as I do! All of these stamps along with your YNS favorites are available today at the YNS Store so be sure to grab your discount code at the end of my post and shop, shop, shop.
Today for my hop creation I decided to ink up the amazing new Window Play – Outside!
I coloured all the pieces in with Copics and glazed the window before cutting everything out, then I pop dotted everything together so the window has a 3D effect. As a finishing touch I added a few flowers and fancied up the centers with some YNS glittered skittles. This set was so fun to play with and it has endless possibilities! Love it!!!
I’d like to say thank you to Oma, a fabulous YNS customer I had the chance to meet back in April, for suggesting the soccer stamp! YNS needed an adorable little soccer player – thanks Oma!

Happy Saturday!
I decided to release a new stamp today – just for FUN! Kerri worked with this adorable new stamp Chit Chat for the Splitcoast Dirty Dozen gallery which was posted on June 15th and I promised I would release this stamp as soon as it was ready…it’s now here and available to purchase at the YNS Store so I thought today would be the perfect day to share this adorable card Kerri made using this fabby new stamp…
I love the layout Kerri used for the card and the colors are fabulous!
I’m off to enjoy the hot sun and some time with the family. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
It’s the 1st of the month so you know what that means…
I get to introduce you to our fabulous July guest designer – YAY!
This month I am pleased to announce that the fabulous Jenny Peterson is joining us – so glad to you have you join the YNS family Jenny!
Jenny is a Canadian gal and her creative and fun stamping style will surely make you smile! I noticed this card she made using Snorkel Fun Penguin and just knew I had to ask her to join us here at YNS.
Here is a little but of info about Jenny in her own words…
Hi there! My name is Jenny Peterson and I am hopelessly addicted to stamping! I have been scrapbooking since I had my first child, seven years ago. I don’t do it a whole lot though, as I find it quite time consuming and I never know when to quit! I started stamping about 3 years ago and I like that I can have quick results with a card. I have three little boys, ages 2, 5 and 7. I am married to my high school sweetheart and he hates all things stampy (he has a jealousy complex I think;). I am a Registered Nurse and teach nursing part time at a nearby college. I live with my family in the country in central Alberta, Canada. I love being creative and am a just kid in art class at heart:) I have had the privilege to design and guest design for some great companies and I am super excited to be this months guest DT for Your Next Stamp!
Check out this adorable card she made using the fabulous Fhiona Galloway image Fetch…
Be sure to stop by her blog and give her a warm welcome to YNS!

Canada Post is finally back to delivering mail so I thought I would celebrate by having a Berry Sweet Stamp Sale to thank you, my fabulous customers, for your patience and support during the recent Canada Post strike.
The moment I heard that Canada Post would be back into action I immediately thought YIPPEE so I decided to ink up the adorable Yippee Fhiona and created this berry sweet card…
Here are a few facts about this card…
Yippee Fhiona is stamped using Brilliance Black Ink onto Copic X-Press It blending card

It’s Friday! YAY!
It’s my niece Isabel’s 3rd birthday today so we’ll be heading over to see the family tomorrow for her little birthday party. Brandon just adores both his cousins Catherine and Isabel so he is super excited to be hanging out with his little buddies this weekend. The fact that Isabel and Brandon are so cute together inspired me to ink up this super adorable stamp Fhiona and Her Best Buddy Fhinn. I think this stamp is so stinkin’ CUTE and it totally reminds me of Brandon and Isabel.
A few facts about this card…
