Happy 5th Birthday Your Next Stamp!! Come Hop Along...


 
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!!!

Hello Your Next Stamp friends! We’re turning FIVE this month and we’re having a big party to celebrate! We’re so happy to have you here to enjoy the festivities with us! Not only is it a birthday party for us, we want to celebrate you – the customers – as well. Thank you so much for all your support the past five years!

The rubber stamp and digital teams have worked so hard to complete some awesome projects for this combined hop! We have a fantastic line up of stamps and dies that are being released. There’s sure to be something for everyone - from adding to our Silly Monster family, to the nostalgic 60s, to savouring the sweet tastes of summer with mason jars. There’s a perfect assortment of images and dies. You can find all of the new goodies HERE at the Your Next Stamp Store. 

The hop begins on Bonnie’s blog and if you've been hopping along, you should have come from Jen's blog. Make sure you hop around to all of the blogs featured in the link list located at the bottom of this post for lots of inspiration using the new products!

BIG BIRTHDAY PARTY PRIZE ALERT!!! Make sure to leave a comment on all of the blogs and collect the balloon letters. Once you unscramble the balloon letters, email Karen @ yournextstamp[dot]com and you will be entered to win a $20.00 YNS gift certificate.

There are FIVE prizes of a $20 gift certificate up for grabs so make sure you email Karen!

The lucky winners will be announced on the Your Next Stamp Blog August 10th.

 
For my card, I am using Hippie Owl.  I just can't get over this adorable image! I love the VW bus and it reminds me of my childhood when our neighbor drove one and we always knew who it was when it was driving around town.
 

This image was stamped on X-Press It paper and colored in with Copics. I followed the current sketch over at the YNS challenge blog and used some fun tie dye patterned paper for the background. Included is the new YNS banner die which I used for the sentiment.  The card was finished with some Prima flowers and some YNS Gumdrops.
