YNS Bunny with gingerbread cookie

For my final project for the new Your Next Stamp release I’ve used this adorable little bunny and made a layered card in traditional Christmas colours. The sentiment is from the same stamp set, Christmas Cookie, which you can find here.

YNS Twinkles star wreath

A few days ago, for the blog hop, I shared a simple card featuring one of the new wreaths at Your Next Stamp from the Holiday Twinkle stamp set. Today I have a card using the other wreath, the star! I’ve made a completely different card using the Paint Swooshes and Splashes stamp set to create a background using two different types of Distress Oxide Inks. The banner and sentiment is also from the wreath stamp set and I coupled it with chipboard from Make It Crafty.

Don’t forget about the blog hop that ends tonight and the discount. You find the details on my blog hop post!

The new Your Next Stamp release is now out! It is such a great and fun release! Did you see card I showed yesterday with the cute Holiday Ponies? Well today I have another card for you. This time I used the circular wreath from the Holiday Twinkle stamp set and made a very simple card because I think the stamp is enjoy of a decoration on its own. You can find all the new products at the Your Next Stamp store. And while you’re there, you shouldn’t forget about the discount:

Anyway, let’s take a look at my card! There are so many fun elements to colour up. I really quite like both the wreaths on this set, so there might just be another card from me soon, just saying! I’ve kept it simple by adding it onto grey cardstock using foam tape for dimension and drew on a black border. The sentiment banner is cut out by hand and also put on foam tape.

YNS November release preview

I’ve been so fortune that I’ve been asked to take part in the Your Next Stamp November release as a quest designer! The stamps are super cute and I’m up for any excuse to make Christmas cards! For the release preview, I’ve made a card using the Holiday Ponies. There are 4 ponies, some sentiments and some smaller stamps all together. I’ve gone with classic Christmas colours for this.

I’ll be back tomorrow with another card for this super release as a part of the blog hop!

Here is a photo of the stamp set with my coloured up ponies as well.

YNS: Kyle the Koala

Today I’m here to show you the third and final project I’ve made a guest designer for Your Next Stamp. This time I’ve used Kyle the Koala. In addition I’ve used the Paint Swooshes and Splatters stamp set to make the background behind the koala. It was made using two different shades of Distress Oxide Ink. I was just playing around making the layout, and I really like how it turned out! In fact I’m already planning planning to do something similar as a baby card as I think that could work well. The dots in the corner as also by YNS.

Here you can see a close up of the background I made.
