First of all…Happy Thanksgiving to all my fellow Canadians! I hope everyone is having a fabulous weekend!

As many of you know Your Next Stamp is a proud sponsor and vendor for ScrapFest here in Ontario and this coming weekend is the first ever ScrapFest Oshawa! YAY! If you live in the area this is an event you will not want to miss and if you haven’t registered already visit the ScrapFest website and be sure to register for the special VIP Marketplace pass…you will want to get your hands on the awesome goodie bag plus you get to grab the best items since the VIP pass allows you to shop on Friday as well as on Saturday!

To celebrate, I’m offering a 10% discount voucher for those attending the show! Simply print out the above voucher and present it at the YNS Booth to receive 10% off your purchase of YNS stamps!

The Your Next Stamp DT also have a very special blog hop planned for this coming Friday (October 15th) where we will be showcasing a VERY special stamp! This stamp will only be available for a very limited time and will be at an amazing price with free shipping to boot, but we can’t tell you anymore than that right now as it’s top secret! So be sure to pop back here on Friday to hop along with us, see this extra special stamp, and grab one for your collection! Any crafter who isn’t able to grab this stamp will definitely be disappointed. As I said, it’s only going to be available to buy from the YNS store from Friday and for a VERY limited time and I’m positive you’ll kick yourself if you miss it!

I am so excited to share this with you so be sure to pop back here on Friday!

Happy Stamping!

You may have noticed the retired stamp section over at the YNS Store. If not, be sure to click this link to check it out!

When I first launched YNS I had an overwhelming request for single images along with mix and match accessories so I listened to you, my fabulous and wonderful customers, and in response to your request I only produced a limited number of this super adorable sets so if you would like to get your hands on some of them you have until September 30th at midnight. I’ve even marked them down a whooping 60% off so be sure to grab the sets you want before they are gone!

Hop on over to the YNS Store and check out the remaining sets…quite a few of the limited edition sets have only a few remaining.

Since I don’t have a card to show you here is one by my friend Lora for you to see…she has used the new Copic paper for this card along with the adorable stamp Ethan out on the pond :o) I think this card is fabulous!!! Thanks for sharing it with me Lora!

Also you ladies asked for it so I got it!!! Embellie Gellie is here and I love it!!! This little tool is perfect for adding those embellishments to your projects! Check out all the details over at the YNS store.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend!

I’ve been busy getting ready for ScrapFest Oshawa which to me is 2 days of absolute total crazy FUN and it all starts on October 15th! If you live in the area I hope you come and join in all the fun and shopping! I’d love to meet you! You can get tickets and all the details on the ScrapFest website.

I’m hoping to get all inky and make a card to share with you soon but in the meantime I thought I would share this fabulous product from Studio 3 Solutions…

Aren’t these Color Cubbies just amazing!!! My cubbies arrived this past Thursday and OMG I just love these cubbies! They display all my Copics perfectly so I can easily grab them as I’m working away and they look fabulous in my craft room! My mom saw them today and said…”well I hope you got me and your sister one too” I guess I’m placing another order! lol

I have give a 2 thumbs up to the shipping as well because these little cubbies where packaged up so nicely and they arrived in absolute perfect condition! The price is right too! Each cubbie is only $16.95 so if you are looking for a marker/pencil/pen storage solution be sure to check them out! Also I’d like to thank the owner Tami for her amazing customer service!!!

Have a great day and happy stamping!

Please give a warm welcome to…

Ok so before I reveal the names of our fabulous new DT members I’d like to thank everyone for applying. I know I’ve said this before but I really do appreciate all of your support and your love for YNS stamps!

If you did not make the team this round please know that I would love for you to apply again for my next term so look for that announcement sometime in January. Plus I will be asking people to join us as guest designers over at the YNS challenge blog and one sure way to be noticed is to play along with our challenges using YNS images!

Happy Birthday Dad!

We’re celebrating my father’s birthday this weekend and he loves fishing and relaxing on his boat so I thought this was the perfect stamp for his card! I’ve used Ethan out on the pond and just couldn’t resist pairing it up with this adorable 3 Bugs in a Rug DP.

I thought this was the perfect time to share with you a few cute pictures of Brandon. He got to go fishing with Grandpa for the first time this past week and he had so much fun playing with all the rubber worms in his pail plus ‘bumpa’ (this what Brandon calls him) let him drive the boat! LOL

Plus to celebrate Dad’s birthday I’ve got a sale going on over at the YNS store…

20% off for Dads Birthday Sale

Online Code DAD2010
Sale ends Monday at midnight

Have a wonderful weekend!
