Just for laughs

I hope you had a wonderful weekend! Summer has definitely kicked into high gear here as it’s hot and sunny most days and I’m loving it! I promised Brandon a trip to the park this morning before it gets too hot but before we head out I wanted to share a funny card I made using Mother Hen and the Mother Hen Sentiment.
Read the sentiment on the front and then scroll down to see the inside of the card…
Here’s the inside…

I made a card using these stamps for my brother in laws 40th birthday and I must say it was quite a funny moment when he opened the card, the laughter and comments were priceless!

I have to thank Linda Cummings for this idea…she emailed me one day and told me she made a card for her friend using Mother Hen and put this sentiment on the inside of her card. I laughed so hard and knew I just had to turn it into rubbah for all to enjoy.

I’ve had so many requests for different sentiments to match YNS stamps so I’ve been slowing adding some to the YNS image library. Be sure to check out all the sentiments available over at the YNS store plus many of the stamps come with a matching sentiment already as an added bonus.

I hope my card made you giggle today!

Until next time…

Happy Stamping!

July Guest Designer

Happy Friday!

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!

Happy Stamping!

My hop project is featuring the new Franfou image Balloon Ride which I think is so CUTE! I made this card for Brandon’s birthday and since his favorite color is orange I just knew I had to paper piece the balloon with orange designer paper plus he loves buttons so I embellished some of the circles with buttons. He opened it up and said “ORANGE, BUTTONS…I LOVE IT!” LOL Just the reaction I was hoping for from my adorable little 3 year old.

May New Release Sneak Peek Day 1

Hello Friends and Happy Friday!

I’m so excited to be bringing you some fabulous new stamps this coming Monday so I thought it would be fun to show a few peeks over the next few days! YAY!

This release is packed full of fun new images from your favorite YNS artists and I can’t for the new release hop on May 23rd as the DT always have so many fabulous creations to share with us!

Today I’ve got a Franfou peek for you!

DT member Wendy made this fabulous card using the new Jumbo Flamingo Fred stamp. This stamp is currently available as a smaller Flamingo Fred stamp and since he’s been so well loved I thought he needed to be released as a larger stamp with a few fun co-ordinating sentiments.

I hope you enjoyed our Friday Sneak Peek! I’ll see you again tomorrow!

Happy Stamping!
