G’day! It’s Thanh here and I just wanted to pop in and give you a quick update of some upcoming events for YNS. If you’ve been wondering why things have been pretty quiet, it’s because Karen is really busy preparing for the Scrap Fest event that is taking place locally close to her hometown. For all you locals in the Ontario area, she’s hoping to see you out this weekend!
We also have exclusive stamps and dies for Scrap Fest – if you’ve attended in the past and missed out, now is the time to grab them while they’re on sale this week:
With the preparation of Scrap Fest, our April release is delayed until the 15th this month.
We’ll be starting the sneak peeks on the 14th, so be sure to keep an eye on this blog. Actually, you better go and add us on Instagram – I have a tendency to sneak previews before the day of on that little app!
We hope that you’re as excited as we are to show you all the new releases! Take care until next time.

Thank you so much to everyone who was able to visit the YNS booth at ScrapFest this weekend! I really appreciate all your support and love for YNS!
I have to admit I didn’t think I could handle all the ScrapFest prep and the actual 2 day event with a new baby plus many of you may not know this by my Dad passed away suddenly on March 6th which turned my world upside down. He was a wonderful man supported my love for YNS, he even came up with the name ‘Your Next Stamp’ so I knew he would want the show to go on! With all the support of my family and wonderful friends we made it happen and it was a super FUN weekend! My Dad would be very proud!
Check it out…
Lots of wonderful customers shopping! Thank you so much for all your love for YNS!!! It really brightens my day to hear all the wonderful things you have to say about our products and designers!
My brother in law Mal and Chris worked the cash – thanks guys! You made all the ladies smile with your good humor!
Jessica even came for a visit and she had a blast! Check out those big eyes and look of excitement!
Tracy and Jen were amazing with the all customers! Thanks ladies!!! You gals ROCK!
We hope to see everyone at the next ScrapFest in Richmond Hill!!! Stampy Hugs!
