Happy 4th Birthday, YNS!

Hi, everybody! Glad you’re joining us today to celebrate Your Next Stamp’s 4th Birthday! We’re so happy to have you celebrating with us! You probably arrived from Nicole’s blog, but you can find the full list of blogs in today’s hop at the bottom of my post!

As part of the celebration, we’re introducing four clear stamps, part of a fabulous new stamp line designed by Penny Johnson exclusively for YNS, “In Vogue”!

I chose “Cocktail Girls” for today’s card:
 
Disclaimer: I drew a mouth on each lady in the image. The original artwork, when stamped, does not contain a mouth for either character. It was a personal choice and shouldn’t reflect on YNS or Penny Johnson.
And of course, we can’t have a celebration hop without prizes! Make sure to comment on each blog in today’s hop, because FOUR lucky random commenters will each win a stamp from this release: 


Our blog hop runs until Saturday, August 10th at midnight Eastern Time, so make sure you get all of your commenting done before then! The list of winners will be posted on the YNS blog on Sunday, August 11th.
Wait, there’s more! Karen is having an anniversary sale in the YNS Store all month long! Here’s your chance to pick up some or all of the stamps on your YNS wish list!
Now, it’s time to visit the YNS blog! 
Thanks so much for stopping by today!
Hugs,

YNS Fun Friday!

Hi again! It’s my turn to post a card for Fun Friday at Your Next Stamp!

Did you know that we changed our challenge day to Friday, and are giving you more time to play along? Now, you have all month to join in our Fun Friday challenge, and our theme is much more flexible! 

We now host one challenge each month, and you can play along as many times as you like! We’ll provide an inspiration photo and a sketch. You can use one or the other for your entry, or both!

I used the sketch for today’s card and rotated it to the side. I’m featuring “Madison“, and the Wave Border Die. The fish image and sentiment are part of the “Madison” set. I stamped the fish on a chipboard circle, colored it and added Glossy Accents to make it into an embellishment.


As promised, here’s our sketch and photo for July:
