A Your Next Stamp Blog Hop

Welcome to the Your Next Stamp CHA Release BLOG HOP!

We are so excited here at YNS because Karen has taken YNS to CHA for the very first time! That's right, as you're reading this Karen will be at Winter 2011 CHA at booth #4518! WOO-HOO!!
So to celebrate this event, YNS is releasing some fab new YNS stamps just in time for CHA. You may have already caught a sneak peek of some of them last week over at the Scrapbook & Cards Today blog, but today you get to see all 9 World Kids stamps plus a fabulous new Celebrate Collection from HR Designs and 7 new mini stamps.
These new stamps are available to buy right now from the Your Next Stamp store along with all your YNS favourites.
 
Of course we couldn't let this release pass by without having a fun blog hop! We also have 4 fabulous guests joining us for our hop - the amazing Tori Wild, Cindy Haffner, (hee hee that’s me) Carole Burrage and Maylee Pham!
If you would like to participate in the hop and you didn't arrive here from Chris Olsen, please CLICK HERE to return to the start of the hop at Kerri's blog, as you don't want to miss these fab new releases!
The hop starts today (28 January 2011 at 08:00 EST) and ends on 2 February 2011 at midnight EST.
As always here at Your Next Stamp, we have a wonderful prize for you to win! One lucky winner will be drawn at random from the links in the linky list to receive their choice of 3 of the new World Kids stamps!
You will see that every stop along the hop has a linky list - this is the SAME  linky list posted on every blog, so that you can enter the prize draw from any stop (although we hope you will visit all the blogs on today's hop!). The linky will update itself on everyone's blog when a link is entered - how cool is that? Please remember to only enter your name ONCE into the linky list during the hop - you do NOT need to enter your name at every stop and multiple entries will be removed. It's not a requirement for you to comment at every stop along the hop to be eligible to be entered into the prize draw, but the DT would sure love to hear what you think of their new release creations!
 


So onto my blog hop creation! I have used Ainsley from Scotland.  What a SWEETIE!!!  She includes a flower from her Native land, which is a Fay Reid.  I looked up this flower and it is purple, so I did my SWEET Ainsley in a purple plaid.  I just ADORE all the Your Next Stamp sets!!!!  Thank-you Karen for having me as a Guest Designer, it is such a HONOR!!!

Your Next Stamp Blog Hop

Hi everyone, today is a very special day as Your Next Stamp is celebrating its very 1st birthday with a Birthday Blog Hop!

The YNS Starlets are being joined by some fabulous friends for this hop, and together we are showcasing some fantastic new release stamps as well as some firm favorites! These new stamps are available to buy from today from Your Next Stamp, along with all your YNS favorites.

If you'd like to participate in the hop and you didn't arrive here from Beth’s blog, please CLICK HERE to return to the start of the hop at Karen's blog, as I'm sure you don't want to miss out on all the fun we have for you today!

The hop starts today (Thursday, August 5th at 08:00 EST) and ends on Wednesday August 11th at midnight (EST).

We have not one but two grand prizes for you to win - two lucky winners will be drawn at random to each receive a $25 gift certificate to spend on YNS stamps! WOW! As the prize is so fantastic, we are going to make you work a little to enter, LOL! Each Starlet and Guest Starlet have a letter hiding in their blog post. All you need to do is gather these letters, rearrange them to form a 3-word phrase, and then email this phrase to Karen. All correct entries will be entered into the grand prize draw. So make sure you hop around every blog and remember to leave a comment at every stop too.

My secret letter is .... S

All that cake must have affected Karen as she has gone a little crazy and is holding a 20% off sale for the duration of the hop - the crazy part is that everything will be reduced by 20%, including items already on sale! I'm not sure when (or even if!) this will happen again, so make sure you hop on over to the YNS store once you've completed the hop and fill your basket!

My SWEET guy is Baseball Boy, isn’t he a CUTIE!! Just perfect for any little boys in your life. My Grandson’s play T-Ball and they will love this stamp.

So now it's time for you to hop on over to Kerr’s blog as she is the next stop on our hop, but don't forget to grab my hidden letter first and also leave me a comment!

Thanks so much for hopping with us today! I hope you enjoy our birthday celebrations and the FABULOUS new stamps!

Party Fhiona

Your Next Stamp is the sponsor for SFYTT this week. Check Jen’s blog for all the fun details. What a great sketch, just perfect for my, Mini Party Fhiona

I used a mixture of different design papers cut with a spellbinder die. Then I added some bling and ribbon.

I hope you can play along!! Want to wish everyone a Happy Week-end.

It is so hot here in Saskatchewan, Canada. We had a tornado last week that register as a F3, and hit down only 4 miles from us. Pretty scary stuff, some lost their homes in the area and BEAUTIFUL yards that took a lifetime to make!! Thank goodness no lives were lost.
